Kudos to Jiri who did the real work!

And I see a strange delay when compiling builtin-sched.o.  After
building perf tools, I deleted builtin-{sched,test,script}.o to rebuild
the only since they are largest ones.

  namhyung@leonhard:perf$ ls -lS *.c | head -3
  -rw-r--r-- 1 namhyung namhyung 45522 2012-10-27 00:20 builtin-sched.c
  -rw-r--r-- 1 namhyung namhyung 36372 2012-10-27 00:20 builtin-test.c
  -rw-r--r-- 1 namhyung namhyung 35555 2012-10-27 00:20 builtin-script.c

  namhyung@leonhard:perf$ rm builtin-{sched,test,script}.o


And then building each file with time command shows this:

  namhyung@leonhard:perf$ time make builtin-script.o &> /dev/null

  real  0m4.577s
  user  0m2.755s
  sys   0m1.655s

  namhyung@leonhard:perf$ time make builtin-test.o &> /dev/null

  real  0m4.486s
  user  0m2.707s
  sys   0m1.658s

  namhyung@leonhard:perf$ time make builtin-sched.o &> /dev/null

  real  0m16.936s
  user  0m15.157s
  sys   0m1.635s

You can see it easily when building perf without -j option. But I have
no idea why it takes so long..

Thanks,
Namhyung
