I've added a test to my perf_event_test testsuite to look for this bug.
   http://www.eece.maine.edu/~vweaver/projects/perf_events/validation/

In my (minimal) testing so far it looks like this bug does exist in 3.2
but does not in 2.6.35.  Is anyone curious enough to do a bisect to find 
out when it was introduced?
