Olga> Who is responsible for closing this bug?
Hm, let's look at the Public Comments:
[ jbeck, 2009-Dec-02 ]
I am closing this as Will-Not-Fix, as the benefit in very minor disk
space savings is not worth the cost in reduced maintainability. Note
that I am not acting as a "lone wolf"; a large number of ON engineers
discussed this at lunch yesterday, at which there was strong consensus
that this would be a Bad Idea [tm] for the reasons I mentioned above.

Olga> dtrace.
See above: the benefit is not worth the cost.
