Steve, you do have a good point here.  I am wondering if that is why we should consider changing the output to match aer_print_error().  The code path to aer_print_error() is the more common path where not as many platforms support the cper_print_error() path (firmware first AER).  So it is more likely that any tools written would know how to parse the output from aer_print_error().  It would be good for those tools to support firmware first AER when it becomes more common.  Of course this is purely conjecture.  I have no idea if there are any tools that parse this text output.
