Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ba21594cdd perf tools: Cross platform perf.data analysis support
There are still some problems related to loading vmlinux files,
but those are unrelated to the feature implemented in this
patch, so will get fixed in the next patches, but here are some
results:

1. collect perf.data file on a Fedora 12 machine, x86_64, 64-bit
userland

2. transfer it to a Debian Testing machine, PARISC64, 32-bit
userland

        those will have to wait for 'perf archive' or plain
        copying what was collected by 'perf record' on the x86_64,
        source machine, see further below for an example of this >

The other modes work as well, modulo the problem with vmlinux:

So I think this is really, really nice in that it demonstrates
the portability of perf.data files and the use of build-ids
accross such aliens worlds :-)

There are some things to fix tho, like the bitmap on the header,
but things are looking good.
