[MLton-devel] cvs commit: merge of allocation profiling branch

I'm curious why the profile files don't always use 8 byte counters now.  Given
that they are sparse, it doesn't seem like the size would be much of a
problem.  Also, the latest kernels (Red Hat 8.0 at least) has switched to a
500 MHz clock for 686 and Athlon CPUs.  Thus if we interrupt at full speed,
a 4 byte counter will overflow in a bit under 40 hours.  Not that long.
