------- Comment #6 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-03-12 06:52 ------- I should note that when GCC emits the annotations for profiling, it actually emits the counter updates and all and other optimizations don't need to know about them except if they want to know the information about what they had provided. I Bet this is different from the compiler you were developing.
