Ah, the moment of truth.. :-) Well, uh, no. I didn't know puremodule
existed, so I didn't give it a try. It seems like something that would
be of use, though, so I'd hate to see it go away. A cursory look at
the code indicates that it may need some updating (have to try...the
API may not have actually changed significantly). I'm actually more
interested in it from the Quantify side of things from the standpoint
of being able to provide the user a single look at their application
profiling data from both a C and Python perspective.
