I'm told (and have been persuaded of this), that Wine's internal
structures preclue a 'normal' profiler from working properly,
hence the need for a Wine specific one.
I know we toyed with adapting gprof to Wine semantics, but
decided, in the end, that was too hard and not worth it.

charles spam hunters should not know to add an at codeweavers.com.
