+o _p_i_x_i_e now supports pthreads. [Incidents 429805,
429808]
+o _p_r_o_f now deals correctly with corded and pixified DSOs.
[Incidents 460896, 466242]
+o Memory corruption and serious leaks in _p_r_o_f have been
fixed. [Incidents 438743, 443870, 445116, 450732,

+o The man page for _p_r_o_f has been updated to describe when
the executable name should be specified in the
command-line. [Incident 502949]
+o Performance regression with _p_r_o_f -feedback has been
fixed. [Incident 504663]
+o _p_r_o_f now pronts the procedure's entry address if it
can't find its name. [Incident 443662]
+o _p_r_o_f now works on DSOs without text. [Incident 463940]
+o _p_r_o_f now uses the correct TDTs for R8000. [Incident
443657]
+o _p_r_o_f now works correctly with multiple caliper points.
[Incident 439153]
+o _p_r_o_f now deals correctly with _d_l_c_l_o_s_e() calls.
[Incident 471241]
+o SpeedShop runtime initialization problems have been
fixed. [Incident 452286]
+o The usertime experiment now uses SIGPROF by default,
instead of SIGALRM. [Incident 438788]
+o Environment variable setting for
_SPEEDSHOP_HWC_COUNTER_* is now consistent. [Incident
461130]
+o _p_i_x_i_e now supports pthreads. [Incidents 455302,

441509, 436674, 461434, 449777, 446205, 443163]
+o Experiment file naming distinguishes between run, fork,
sproc, exec and system. [Incident 332810]
+o SpeedShop now correctly handles beerbottles (exec of
self). [Incident 375589]
+o _p_r_o_f -q now works correctly. [Incident 419978]
+o SpeedShop documentation description of ideal time is
now correct. [Incident 457091]
+o SpeedShop now handles correctly _d_l_o_p_e_n() calls for
pixified DSOs. [Incident 472695]
+o Environment variable _SPEEDSHOP_SAMPLING_MODE is now
supported correctly. [Incident 473483]
+o _p_r_o_f now shows scope of C++ methods. [Incident 492770]
+o SpeedShop runtime now records the right CPU inventory
for MP machines. [Incident 495106]
+o For usertime experiments, SpeedShop checks the
profiling interval specified and prints a warning in
case it's invalid. [Incident 472751]
+o Various SpeedShop runtime warnings are not printed
anymore. [Incident 471244]
4.2 _F_i_x_e_s__i_n__S_p_e_e_d_S_h_o_p__1_._1__s_i_n_c_e__S_p_e_e_d_S_h_o_p__1_._0
+o Usertime experiments no longer fail on o32 MP-FORTRAN
programs with a core dump from _l_i_b_e_x_c in
___f_i_n_d__r_p_d__n_a_m_e(), or on n32 and n64 MP-FORTRAN
programs with a core dump from _l_i_b_e_x_c in
___e_x_c__u_n_w_i_n_d__n_a_m_e(), provided that patch 1609 is
installed. [Incidents 369433, 369458]
+o Ideal-time (_p_i_x_i_e) experiments no longer fail on
cord'ed n32 and n64 binaries and/or DSOs. [Incident
313345]
+o Ideal-time experiments (_p_i_x_i_e) no longer fail on o32,
n32 or 64 MP-FORTRAN programs. [Incidents 369933]

+o Ideal-time experiments (_p_i_x_i_e) no longer fail on R8000
machines (with a core dump in _r_l_d), provided patch 1584
is installed. [Incident 383655]
+o Floating point exception tracing experiments (-fpe) no
longer fail on R8000 machines, with the program seeming
to loop forever, provided that patch 1632 is installed.
[Incident 384003]
+o Ideal-time experiments (_p_i_x_i_e) no longer fail on
programs that receive signals when in a signal handler.
[Incident 351303]
+o Experiments with _SPEEDSHOP_TRACE_FORK set will no
longer record the child's data, when it calls _e_x_e_c().
[Incident 375586]
+o Ideal-time experiments (_p_i_x_i_e) may fail on programs
that use the multigot feature of the linker. [Incident
360360]
+o _p_r_o_f now produces a function list report by default,
and produces a gprof listing only if the -gprof flag is
set. [Incident 374992]
+o Ideal-time experiments (_p_i_x_i_e) no longer fail on
programs that use a _d_l_o_p_e_n() to add a DSO, even if the
DSO, or a link to it, is not in the current directory.
