Re: [GIT PULL 0/4] perf/urgent fixes

(Just reporting two bugs I found today - unrelated to your the
perf/urgent pull request.)

1)

Even when the most modern unwind library is found, the autodetection
is spammy:


Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ on ]
... glibc: [ on ]
... gtk2: [ on ]
... libaudit: [ on ]
... libbfd: [ on ]
... libelf: [ on ]
... libnuma: [ on ]
... libperl: [ on ]
... libpython: [ on ]
... libslang: [ on ]
... libunwind: [ on ]
... libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ on ]
... DWARF post unwind library: libunwind

The 'DWARF post unwind library' line is somewhat superfluous. I
realize that it prints out the library selected - but that's obvious
from the 'libdw-dwarf-unwind' line above it already, right?

Furthermore, it breaks the autodetection output format.

2)

On latest Ubuntu (14.04) the tip:master build fails with:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -liberty
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

The autodetection sequence reports all green entries, so something's
funky going on there.

Thanks,

Ingo
