I think the extensions and plugins depend on UNO objects.  So long as that is 
the case, the profile code should be unreachable.

If you go to a page that we already have a link for, such as 
<https://bitbucket.org/mst/ooo340/src/8b564af029aa60259c0d133d7dc37468ef56e4b5/sal/inc/osl/profile.h>
You'll see the file path "mouse tracks" at the top of the page just above all 
the information about multiple heads of the default branch.  You can walk back 
up the tree and down to the page you want [;<).

You made me look :).  Apparently sal/osl/w32/profile.cxx sprang primordially 
from the earth on 2010-01-29.  I have to believe there was an older one, 
possibly named profile.c but deleted and not shown in the bitbucket.
