missing Java method information in operf profile

I'm running the operf from AT 7.0-5 on a POWER8 system:
  # /opt/at7.0/bin/operf -v
  /opt/at7.0/bin/operf: oprofile 1.0.0git compiled on Jul 24 2014 13:49:08
using the command (as root):
  /opt/at7.0/bin/operf --events PM_RUN_CYC:10290000 --separate-thread
--separate-cpu --system-wide

There are 14 active JVM processes running on the system that I am trying to
profile.  For some reason, the profiles only contain full JIT compiler
method information for 2 or 3 of the processes (it varies across different
runs).  I have checked that the agentlib option is being correctly passed
to the JVMs, and that the JIT dump files for all 14 processes are available
in /tmp/.oprofile/jitdump at the time that operf is run.

A casual look at verbose output from operf didn't indicate any problems in
accessing the JIT dump files, it just didn't try to process all of them.  I
tried adding --lazy-conversion to the operf options, and that run did show
an issue at the end of the verbose output:
  add sym: name=Ljava/utilchild received signal 9
