Sorry, I should have been more careful; now it doesn't dump core, but
it gives me nonsense answers when trying to profile gcc-2.95.

At any rate, the following change gets rid of the error message.

Thanks, I checked in this patch.

That only changes a debugging message, though, so I don't see how it
could be at the root of your problem.

alpha linux fix for gprof

[Brad Lucier]

gprof from binutils.2.9.5.04 was dumping core with glibc2.1.1, kernel 2.2.10,
gcc-2.95 on alpha dumps core.

When building it I got the following message:

../../gprof/corefile.c:728: warning: int format, different type arg (arg 2)

The following change seemed to fix the problem:
