Seems to be an artifact of older kernels. Definitely occurs for 2.6.34 
and WindRiver Linux 4. Also reproduced with vanilla 2.6.35. Use newer 
perf command -- e.g., 3.11 -- to record events and then try to analyze 
with Linus', Arnaldo's or Ingo's latest branch which now have this 
patch. Given the breakage it needs to be either fixed or reverted before 
3.12
