Not quite this. Although this works with my test case with 'false'.
It fails when I tried the opposite test case:

$ perf record true && echo yes || echo no
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data (~589 samples) ]
  no

The return code in this case is 255. I tracked it down to err being last set
by poll() which got interrupted by SIGCHLD. So I think the err value must
be overridden somehow in this case. Maybe something like:

                        err = poll(evsel_list->pollfd, evsel_list->nr_fds, -1);
                        if (err < 0 &&  errno == EINTR && forks && done)
                                err = 0;
