Almost: they demonstrate that those parts of the ABI that these particular perf commands rely on have been impressively compatible. Do you have any sort of ABI coverage measurement, to see what parts of the ABI these perf commands do not use?
It's pretty obvious that perf ABI is lacking on that department based on Vince's comments, isn't it? There's an easy fix for this too: improve "perf test" to cover the cases you're intested in. While ABI spec would be a nice addition, it's not going to make compatibility problems magically go away.
