[Python-Dev] New profiling interface

[Fred L. Drake, Jr.]

  The new core interface I checked in allows profilers and tracers
(debuggers, coverage tools) to be written in C.  I still need to write
documentation for it; that shouldn't be too far off though.
  If anyone would like to have this available for Python 2.1.x, I have
a version that I developed on the release20-maint branch.  It can't be
added to that branch since it's pretty clearly a new feature, but the
patch is available at:

  Enjoy!
