Gotcha, I missed the compat table. So below is a full patch, signed off
and everything. It also adds the select HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for sparc32,
but it's only tested on sparc64.

It's already much better, I can just type make and it'll work. Still
builds 64-bit, but at least it only requires zlib and elf which I
already got fixed.

software support for perf is working.
