Testing dtrace

[serguei.spitsyn at oracle.com]

I don't know these tests well.
But I see there is the jhelper/ smoke test there.
It does a fairly surface testing that checks that a simple d-script does 
not fail
and that the jhelper.d (supporting DTrace jstack action) was installed 
on the system.

I still have some old half-manual tests for jhelper.d that were used 5 
years ago.
I can share them if you need. Most likely, they will need some tweaks.

Dan already answered the last question.

Thanks,
Serguei
