I just saw some odd behavior:
```
# perf stat --metrics cpi_breakdown --metrics cpi_breakdown --metric-only ./cmd
WARNING: grouped events cpus do not match, disabling group:
anon group { raw 0x2d018 }
anon group { raw 0x2d018 }
anon group { raw 0x2d018 }
anon group { raw 0x2d018 }
anon group { raw 0x1006a }
anon group { raw 0x400fa }
anon group { raw 0x400fa }
anon group { raw 0x400fa }
anon group { raw 0x400fa }
perf: util/evsel.c:1452: get_group_fd: Assertion `!(!leader->core.fd)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
```
It happened both with and without my changes on binaries which were built
yesterday. Three or four times in a row.
Oddly, it went away without any action on my part. Same commands a minute or so
later. I haven't seen this before. I can't reproduce it now. :-/
