How would this allow one to get a perf.data collected on a powerpc
system, transfer it to a x86-64 (or aarch64, to mention another
workstation wannabe chip) system and then try annotating it?

There was a previous discussion about this, and it involved having all
yout ppc tables available as well as other arches tables, and then
choosing which one to use based on:

	normalize_arch(thread->mg->machine->env->arch)

just like was done for support cross unwinding, see recent patch kit by
He Kuang, CCed.
