David:
  It looks like you're running on an older Intel processor, which is missing necessary events for C2C to work.
  As Don noted in his patch 00/19, this was primarily developed and tested on Intel's Ivy Bridge platform.
  If you rerun this on an Ivy Bridge, it should work fine.
  We should add a runtime check for supported platforms.
Joe
