I'm a bit confused. I thought that we discussed dropping custom SEC()
definitions from perf as no one knew if anyone is even using this
feature and when Jiri tried it didn't even work ([0]). Is this broken
sample some other important use case that we are sure is used by
people and thus must be preserved?
Or dropping this custom SEC() business and prologue generation still
on the table?
