I guess I missed a couple of patches.  I tried this, and it
worked. However, I haven't been able to do a benchmark, since xemacs
keeps standing still now and then. It seems worse on the alpha than on
i686-linux. This is the most annoying bug I know. :-/

I tried it 4-5 times on a i486-linux, and it crashed once. On our
PPro running Linux, I haven't had any trouble with profiling.
