Do we have to catch all possibilities? Then, what about this:
#!/bin/sh
trap "echo 0; exit 1" EXIT
set -e
output=$("$@" --version 2>/dev/null)
output=$(echo "${output}" | sed -nE 's/^v([0-9]+)\.([0-9][0-9])$/\1\2/p')
if [ -z "${output}" ]; then
echo "warning: pahole binary '$1' outputs incompatible version number, pahole will not be used." >&2
exit 1
fi
echo "${output}"
trap EXIT
