Research direction

Start by reproducing the --with-dtrace builds on Linux with GCC and Clang, then inspect Include/pydtrace.d, Python/pydtrace.o, and the Makefile rules that invoke dtrace. Trace the differing linker and dtrace failures, and consider the issue done when the reported Python versions build successfully with --with-dtrace and the relevant build checks pass.
