Precompilation fails: category raw not found

Hi Valentin,

was trying to play around with this package. However, I see:

I'm confused by the fact that the category :raw doesn't seem to have ever existed in LinuxPerf.jl - I checked git log -S :raw without any results.

Do you know what's going on?

Best,
Carsten

Ah, I just found JuliaPerf/LinuxPerf.jl#3. Will try with this PR.

Alright, it now precompiles fine but then I get:

If I use the LinuxPerf PR mentioned above I can get the sum example to run by using #2.

I don't understand the results yet though. But I guess I have to think more about it.
