Which reminds me - IIRC there were issues with multi threaded programs.
But because http://www.digitalmars.com/ctg/trace.html says "Profiling of
multithreaded apps is not supported." there are probably no bug reports
about this - it's expected behavior.
However for the profiler to be really useful (especially nowadays with
multicore CPUs and std.parallelism), profiling multithreaded apps should
be supported.

I think I've tried it once, but didn't have too much use for it (because
for optimization I care more about the output of -profile)
