Are there plans (and roadmap?) to user-space dtrace abilities in

Is my understanding correct?
Yes, NetBSD now supports only tracing inside kernel activities.
AFAIK, nobody is working on the user-space support for now.

One of the things I learned while hacking on Dtrace is that it's not as
hard as it looks from the outside ;) - if it's something you're
interesting in seeing, I recommend looking at the FreeBSD and Illumos
sources, and a lot of it will just Make Sense!
Thanks, ozaki-r, for picking this up... I've been very short on time
lately, and I'd love to see this in.
