This backend sends trace events to standard error output during the emulation.

Also add a "--list-backends" option to tracetool, so configure script can
display the list of available backends.

Not enough quoting -- this will break if $source_path has a space in it.
Try:

echo "                           Available backends:
$("$source_path"/scripts/tracetool --list-backends)"

-- PMM
