From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <a...@redhat.com>
It was just freezing instead of informing about the SEGV, fix it and
also print a backtrace, just like in the TUI mode and in 'perf trace'.
Tested by provoking a NULL deref when pressing 'z':
0.31% libc-2.20.so [.] malloc_consolidate
0.31% ld-2.20.so [.] _dl_relocate_object
0.28% cc1 [.] ht_lookup
0.28% cc1 [.] ira_init_register_move_cost
perf: Segmentation fault
Obtained 7 stack frames.
