Yes, I came across this when working with the parallel cost-centre code.
It would
be extremely easy to change the appropriate module in the runtime system
(runtime/profiling/CostCentres.lc -- there are some %-16s and %-11s fields
that need to be changed to achieve this as far as I can tell), and not hard
to add a
flag to do this...
I'm not sure why the restriction is there -- maybe just to tidy the output?!
It is a bit of a pain.
