That wasn't my choice, there is other code elsewhere that depends on
that symbol, I just added a little bit more.
Right - but LINUX_PROFILE was added to correct Linux specific oddities
with the time counter accumulation, whereas your patch is not Linux
specific at all. So I think a more representative symbol is required.
In fact - thinking about this a bit more, probably a construction like:
#if defined(LINUX_PROFILE) || defined(PROFILE)
or similar would work - because I think those of us not on Linux do
*not* want to define LINUX_PROFILE, as our timer accumulation for forked
process works fine as it is...but we don't want to make Linux guys have
to define LINUX_PROFILE *and* PROFILE...
