Sigh, of course that will only solve the problem at present because of
the bug in dtrace -L
which Joyent posted a fix for recently, after that I don't think it'll
make a difference at all, except...
It further strikes me that pointing -L at the workspace may cause this
same problem when
changing kernel structures, as we'd update the translators which would
then not be valid on the running
(build machine) kernel.

I'm wrong, and so's this.
