This ended up in perf-tools-next, will have to look at what this problem
is:

   9    11.46 amazonlinux:2                 : FAIL gcc version 7.3.1 20180712 (Red Hat 7.3.1-17) (GCC) 
     yy_size_t parse_events_get_leng (yyscan_t yyscanner );

    util/parse-events.l:22:5: note: previous declaration of 'parse_events_get_leng' was here
     int parse_events_get_leng(yyscan_t yyscanner);

    make[3]: *** [util] Error 2


Unsure if this will appear on the radar on other distros, maybe this is
just something that pops up with older distros...

Ran out of time today...
