It won't. Since lttng 1.x wasn't ported past 2.6.38 (and released), since
lttng was moving to 2.x and the new CTF, there wasn't any sense in
porting it ourselves.

That being said, it IS possible for both 1.x and 2.x to co-exist, but
we don't have the weeks (or the value) in making the port.

Cheers,

Bruce
