There's also a big DTrace probe set patch available from OmniTI: 
https://labs.omniti.com/project-dtrace/trunk/postgresql/
http://labs.omniti.com/trac/project-dtrace/wiki/Applications#PostgreSQL

I don't know if you've looked at that before.  There's some overlap but 
many unique and handy probes to each set.  I think it would be nice to 
consider a superset union of the two.  I would guess OmniTI would be glad 
to have their set assimilated into core as well so they don't have to 
maintain their patch past 8.3; hopefully Theo or Robert will chime in on 
that.
