Ok, this is a more generic fix than the one I used here (adding: ||
strends(ent->d_name, ".scale"), I'll use yours, but this gets us to the
following error:

[root@jouet ~]# perf test -v 5 2>&1 | tail

[root@jouet ~]# cat /sys/devices/cpu/events/bus-cycles

I.e seems to be bickering about a missing newline in the sysfs entry, will check the parser...
