Hi Carl,

Thanks for taking the time to make sure that things are working with OProfile.  I \
would encourage people to update to oprofile-1.1.0 if possible, particularly if they \
are profiling Java code.  There are a number of fixes in there that should improve \
the quality of the data collected for Java code.

-Will
