Hi,

I tried using the `perf timechart` command after a `sudo perf
timechart record -- git status`, and it segfaulted. Backtrace follows:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I compiled it with EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O0 -g", so all the debugging symbols
should be available. Not sure what's going on, or why I needed sudo to
record data in the first place.

Any hints?
