There are two issues in play:

1. PT event synth doesn't support reading inline information from DWARF
yet, and my patch to add it runs into some problems. This is not
relevant for this patch at all.
2. The results from v3 don't quite match the ones from v1, and neither
of us are entirely sure why. My personal feeling is that the one
from v1 are the wrong ones, but it's up to Adrian to say whether we
want to try to investigate deeply here.
