Comment:
GHCi + profiling doesn't work for deeper reasons than this: it would
require a lot of work in the byte-code compiler and interpreter.
If you try 'ghci -prof' you get an error message, but in this case you
built GHCi itself with -prof and tried to use it. I'll make it so that
GHCi fails with a helpful error message earlier.
