BTW, I played with this and I have a few issues. I'll still accept the
patch as it's not that big of a deal. But here's some improvements that
can be made.

It should load in the plugins. As the plugins can process failed events
well. If you don't want the plugins than you can just do what we do with
report, add a -N to prevent plugins from being loaded.

It should also read a trace.dat file if one is provided on the command
line. If you don't add a file then it will use the local events of the
system, if possible.

This would make it even more useful.

Thanks!
