Hi Kalle,
It is an improvement, but I think it would be even better to specifically mention glibc.
Ok - I have checked in a patch to change the paragraph to read as follows: By contrast, the number-of-calls and basic-block figures are derived by counting, not sampling. They are completely accurate and will not vary from run to run if your program is deterministic and single threaded. In multi-threaded applications, or single threaded applications that link with multi-threaded libraries, the counts are only deterministic if the counting function is thread-safe. (Note: beware that the mcount counting function in glibc is not thread-safe).
