That's fine with me - what I stood up against was the idea to merge 
into a single place things like the Git helpers, cmdline/option 
parser, etc.

The naming problem is mostly non-existent if the concepts are kept 
nicely separate: the best name for the debugfs bits is probably 
tools/lib/debugfs/, the best name for command line option parser is 
tools/lib/cmdline/, the best name for trace event parsing is 
tools/lib/traceevents/ [hey, we already have that one in the right 
place! ;-)], etc.

Thanks,

	Ingo
