yep, got it compiled with new clang

I was testing in on bpftrace programs and couldn't made it work,
because it relies on BTF info.. so I got stuck ;-)

  # bpftool prog profile id 241 duration 3 cycles instructions llc_misses
  Error: prog FD 3 doesn't have valid btf

nit.. ^^^ you could display ID instead of FD in here

I need to check if we can provide BTF info for bpftrace programs
