output of heap profiler

[Malcolm Wallace]

Hi to all in Hugs-land.

This bug report concerns the generation of heap profiling data
by Hugs98 (Feb 2000).  In the middle of valid data in the .hp file,
there are interspersed invalid items, e.g.

  foldr 17
  or 2
  v141 3
  Undefined member:  member:  1
  getArgs 2
  FilePos 6

It looks like some error message from a printing routine is being
included by mistake.  The graph-producing tool hp2ps complains

    hp2ps: profile.hp, line 57: integer must follow identifier

If you need a test program to reproduce the problem, I can supply one.
I was using 'hugs -98 -d200' as a command-line.

Regards,
    Malcolm
