Proposed changes:
* Switch from using DTRACE_PROBEn macros to the dynamically generated
macros (remove pg_trace.h)
* Use "dtrace -h" to create a header file that contains the
dynamically generated macros to be used in the source code instead of
the DTRACE_PROBEn macros.
* Create a new header file called probes_null.h to map the generated
macros to no-ops
* This is unrelated to making DTrace work on Leopard, but I'd like to
propose that we split the probes into generic database and Postgres
specific providers, called "database" and "postgresql" respectively.
Other databases will be adding DTrace probes as well, and we want to
use "database" as the provider for probes that are common to all
databases. This way scripts that use the common provider will work on
databases that implement the common probes.
Since I haven't heard any objections, I assume the proposed changes are
acceptable. I'll go a head and submit the patch.
