    I was attempting to trace some user calls in a daemon, and the particular functions I was interested in were statically linked into the executable.

    I'm wondering if there is any way to catch these calls using the -u option.   It seems as though a library is required, anytime -u is used.    I tried wild cards like -u "*::func" but that doesn't seem to work either.
    Seems like there should be a way to do this, since I can use @@uft under probevue to accomplish a similar thing.

    Since I am using probevue, this is more of a curiosity now, but I'm still wondering if there is magic meta-character or whatever to handle this case?
