In a case like this, with changes, should we keep the Ack? I guess not, the fix
may introduce another problem, etc.

We will need a v3, this fixes the 'E'xpand segfault, but not the first
problem reported, again, this time step by step:

---------------------------------------

See the "+ cpu_startup_entry"? If I go there and press enter, I would expect to
see its callers, but what happens is:

It collapses the hist_entry instead of expanding it further.

I'm updating that branch, that now sits on top of what is in acme/perf/core.
