Atleast this one is 3.8 material as it is a regression since 3.7

[tmb@tmb linux-3.8-rc5]$ make -C tools/perf -s V=1 HAVE_CPLUS_DEMANGLE=1
prefix=%{_prefix} all

python_ext_build/tmp/util/evsel.o: In function `sys_perf_event_open':
/mnt/work/Mageia/RPM/1Work/kerenels/linux-3.8-rc5/tools/perf/util/../perf.h:183:
undefined reference to `test_attr__enabled'
