Note that this leaves the perf build against libunwind in the current, broken 
state. I do not know how to detect the activation property there. Does anyone 
else? See elfutils source code for what it is doing:

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=blob;f=libdwfl/
dwfl_frame_pc.c;h=296c815b9c73f42d79ac1778d2a0c420b89ee4eb;hb=HEAD
