SubjectSegfault in perf tool
Hi,

I get segmentation faults when running one of these commands:
perf report -g --sort symbol_to
perf report -g --sort symbol_from
perf report -g --sort dso_from
perf report -g --sort dso_to

I am running uname -a
Linux sb 3.5.0-21-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 11 18:51:59 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The perf utility crashes in both the version installed perf version 3.5.7.1
and as well in the self compiled version from the kernel repository v3.8-rc1

gdb output from the perf version included at kernel v3.8-rc1
