Yes, I noticed that patch in HEAD. I have a hard time understanding how we now need to add all these exceptions to binutils because gcc changed its behaviour. Maybe binutils should allow anything that looks like .<chars>.<num> at a minimum. On the other hand this seems to imply that nobody actually uses gprof anymore... I will try to get a patch submitted to binutils upstream. Thanks for your comment on this. -- Paulo Matos
