What do these tools do? Are you referring to measuring CPU performance (cache misses, TLB refills and so on) or something else? My MSR patch includes a thin driver for performance monitoring: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/
and is supported by a userspace library to yield easy access. The idea is that you can then build glitzy tools on top of the library.
