I haven't had much time to look at this.  I've tried reproducing the
problem, but I can't with the simple test I'm running.

But what's happening with the hex dump you're seeing is that DTrace is
trying to print something that it thinks should be a string but which
contains unprintable characters.  For this case, it defaults to a hex
dump.

What that means is that zv_name contains garbage.  I'm not sure why
this would be happening.
