Yeah. So the reproducer for me is:
rm -rf /tmp/build
mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf
make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ install-bin
rm -rf /tmp/build
make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ install-bin
the second install-bin should fail, and on the old tree it fails correctly
- but with the new tree it pretends that it succeeds.
Looking into it.
