The output seemed consistent with the existing scripts in that, as you point out, there really isn't much consistency. Taking a second look, the only thing I can see is that scripts such as futex-contention and failed-syscalls-by-pid output "comm *[pid]" whereas I'm outputting "pid[comm]".   That's certainly easy to change.

Yes, I believe Vlastimil tested v1 and v2 but I'll let him speak to this and to whether his approval goes beyond testing (re: acked-by).
