It is failing here:

[root@five ~]# perf script firefox-gecko-converter.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/var/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/firefox-gecko-converter.py", line 202, in trace_end
"threads": threads,
NameError: name 'threads' is not defined. Did you mean: 'Thread'?
Fatal Python error: handler_call_die: problem in Python trace event handler
Python runtime state: initialized

Current thread 0x00007fde43f98f40 (most recent call first):
<no Python frame>

Extension modules: perf_trace_context (total: 1)
Aborted (core dumped)
[root@five ~]#

We need to be able to test it at each changeset, not just at the end of
the patchkit, so please reorganize this so that running:

perf script firefox-gecko-converter.py

After each patch works.

We need this to bisect problems, etc.
