I have no objections, though I don't really have time right now to do the
work myself.

The test code is licensed dual GPLv2/BSD. I should stick that in the
package somewhere if I haven't already.

My testcases mostly are testing things necessary for proper PAPI
functionality and are by no means complete. There are huge
areas of perf_event functionality that are not well tested, especially
the overflow code.
