Comment:

 (In [6837]) Closes #52

 This is the second time someone has missunderstood what
 the profile compile type does, so I have added a little
 more help on "./configure --help". As I've explained before
 the profile option prepares MythTV for sampling profilers
 such as oprofile, PerfSuite and vTune.

 Profiling an application like MythTV with gprof is completely
 useless due to the overhead from the instrumentation inserted
 by "-pg".
