Attached is *an* attempt to combine the old profile/cProfile modules into a single 
one called profile. Only the C and Python source and test files are included, not 
any documentation files. More details are in the README file, copied below.
Hopefully, this is useful.

These are the modified files to replace the old profile module with the fast cProfile 
one and rename the latter. A complete list and description follow.

Directory profileNEW contains all the source and test files in their corresponding 
directories. Directory profilePy3k contains the old, original files from the py3k 
trunk taken on May 31, 2009.
Basically, the old _lsprof.c file has been modified and renamed to _profile.c. Both 
old test_profile.py and test_cprofile.py files have been combined into a single new 
file test_profile.py.
The file diff_-ur_profilePy3k_profileNEW.txt contains the forward diffences between 
all the new and orginal files.
File diff_-u_profilePy3k_Modules_lsprof.c_profileNEW_Modules_profile.c.txt contains 
just the differences between the old _lsprof.c and new _profile.c files.
Lastly, for your consideration, file _profile_hires.c is the new _profile.c file 
enhanced to use a high resolution timer, see <http://bugs.python.org/issue2281>. 
This file would replace the _profile.c file in the profileNEW/Modules directory.
The new files and tests were installed in a Python 3.0.1 build and compiled and 
tested on MacOS X 10.4.11 Tiger (Intel). The patches from issue 5330 were also 
installed in this build, see <http://bugs.python.org/issue5330>. All tests passed 
after regenerating the expected results
