I only included the machines I was able to test directly (or were close
enough to what I tested).

I did test qemuarm, and while a simple helloworld script worked, the
other ones didn't, so I concluded that arm systemtap support was broken,
and probably wouldn't work on real arm hardware either, so I didn't
include any as compatible machines.  There was a single consistent
compile error with the other scripts on qemuarm, so it's probably a
simple fix, but who knows - it's something to look into and submit
patches to systemtap if/when we want to get that working...

qemuppc worked fine, but that's all I have wrt that arch, so included
only that.
