Looks good. It doesn't break anything and profiler still works and I
confirmed that we do indeed get the call tree in the second argument.
I've pushed and merged your patch:

     http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/graph

Btw, I noticed you weren't using trailing underscores in internal
functions (more trivial style things), so I changed that.

Okay, get that patch ready by Monday (or sooner?) and that will be the
code that we will show Google. Then we can start looking at
documentation and final polishing.

Later, if you're still interested in Octave (hopefully!), we can start
looking at pretty HTML output.
