Subject: [GIT PULL 0/3] perf improvements

Hi Ingo,

        Please pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux-2.6 perf

	Tested Kyle's patch and it works as advertised:

[acme@...pio linux-2.6-tip]$ nm /tmp/perf.before | grep bfd_ | head -5
00000000004a5810 t MY_bfd_copy_private_section_data
000000000045a2e0 T _bfd_abort
00000000004c89a0 T _bfd_add_bfd_to_archive_cache
00000000004d1b30 T _bfd_add_merge_section
00000000004c7310 T _bfd_ar_spacepad
[acme@...pio linux-2.6-tip]$ nm /tmp/perf.before | grep cplus_demangle | head -2
00000000004d5500 T cplus_demangle
000000000071ce60 D cplus_demangle_builtin_types
[acme@...pio linux-2.6-tip]$ nm ~/bin/perf | grep bfd_ | head -5
[acme@...pio linux-2.6-tip]$ nm ~/bin/perf | grep cplus_demangle | head -2
000000000045c210 T cplus_demangle
000000000067ff60 D cplus_demangle_builtin_types
[acme@...pio linux-2.6-tip]$

	But I guess we should make the autodetection better and not require
passing that define explicitely? Anyway, for now it solves Fedora's srpm problem,
so should go in now.
