Description

In a MRB area with code a bit in front of LARSOFT_SUITE_v06_70_01 (version:v06_70_01), the description of art modules seem not to be printed any more. E.g.,

$ lar --print-description DumpSpacePoints

====================================================================================================

    module_type : DumpSpacePoints (or "lardata/ArtDataHelper/Dumpers/DumpSpacePoints")

        provider: user
        type    : analyzer
        source  : /scratch/petrillo/LArSoft/software/build/develop/prof/srcs/lardata/lardata/ArtDataHelper/Dumpers/DumpSpacePoints_module.cc
        library : /scratch/petrillo/LArSoft/software/build/develop/prof/build_slf7.x86_64/lardata/lib/liblardata_ArtDataHelper_Dumpers_DumpSpacePoints_module.so

    Allowed configuration
    ---------------------

        [ None provided ]

====================================================================================================

Art has completed and will exit with status 1.

The module, lardata:source:lardata/ArtDataHelper/Dumpers/DumpSpacePoints_module.cc, is expected to support the dump on screen of configuration. In the same environment, e.g. art's MemoryTracker prints the description correctly.
The tested platform was SLF7 (woof.fnal.gov), qualifiers e15:prof.

This needs verification that it's not some weird state of the reporter's environment. Also, it should be checked whether this is true for producers, services and filters as well.
