Thanks.  Not building profiled libraries might have been best in 1993
when makeworld took hours (4-10?).  When I optimized makeworld in 1998,
it still took more than 1 hour but I removing profiling from it was
intentionally left out (except for bootstrapping).  It would have saved
only a few minutes.  Now, a whole makeworld should take a few minutes
and the few extra seconds for profiling libraries doesn't matter.
