Oh, related note, if we are going to do this 4.0 seems like the
right time, so we should make it a concrete (non-stretchy) goal.

I think for 4.0 we should also plan to transition away from the
old libpcp_trace library and come up with a different plan, be
that either telling people to use something else (like dtrace,
stap, LTT/UST instrumentation) etc.  I'll look into this, but if
you could add that to the 4.0 list, that'd be great.

cheers.
