to capture that trace i did not use -rt, i just patched latest -git
with:

http://people.redhat.com/mingo/latency-tracing-patches/latency-tracing-v2.6.24-rc3.combo.patch

(this has your fixes included already)

have done:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/mcount_enabled

and have run:

./trace-cmd sleep 1 > trace.txt

http://people.redhat.com/mingo/latency-tracing-patches/trace-cmd.c

to capture a 1 second trace of what the system is doing. I think your
troubles are due to running it within a qemu guest - that is not a
typical utilization so you are on unchartered waters.
