Yeah, thats how this happened.  I posted right before 2.6.39, which was around
July 4th:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/4/273

So I posted it, and shortly thereafter the perf infrastructure changed.  Acme
didnt actually pull the patch in until Well into August, and so it was borked
from there.  I never noticed as I had been using the netlink based utility since
that time.

Thanks for catching this!
