Ahh. And the reason I thought it was new to this release was simply
because I was traveling during the 6.12 merge window and didn't do the
tools build that I usually do, so I hadn't realized it was actually
pre-existing.

Your patch indeed seems to fix it for me. Not hugely urgent (I just
installed the fixed perf binaries and clearly nobody else has even hit
the issue), so I'll leave this alone until the next perf tools fixes
pull and we'll get it fixed then.
