Comment(by drkirkby):
I would also add I think adding profiling information by default is a bad
idea.
* Adding profiling information will slow the code quite considerably.
* The -pg option is not portable, so it would hamper efforts to build
with a non-GNU compiler.
* The purposely add an option which is breaking a build on Open Solaris,
when an Open Solaris port is in progress, seems a bad idea.
* As Jaap points out, only developers want this information - not end
users.
I would be tempted to set it to 'needs work', but feel I can't really do
so, since Open Solaris is not supported on Sage. So the fact an option
breaks on an unsupported operating system is not a sufficiently good
reason for rejecting it. But I would urge the person that created the
ticket, or the reviewer to do so. (BTW, the Reviewer field is not filled
in).
