28When the source for prof was delivered to SunSoft from SunPro (for delivery
29into SunOS 5.3), prof depended on the library libsymint.a.  This library was
30built under the directory lprof/libprof along with the library libprof.a.
31Both libprof.a and libsymint.a shared some source files, which created a
32source sharing problem with SunSoft and SunPro, since SunPro was still
33delivering libprof.a.
34
35Thus to clean up the build, only the object files and headers that prof
36actually needs where moved directly into the build of prof and the dependency
37on the library libsymint.a was removed.  This leaves SunPro owning the entire
38lprof directory.  The follow source files and headers where copied into the
39prof directory from lprof/libprof (prof is the only utilities inherited from
40SunPro that uses libsymint.a) to remove prof dependency of libsymint.a:
41
42	symintOpen.c
43	symintClose.c
44	symintErr.c
45	symintLoad.c
46	symintUtil.c
47	symint.h
48	symintHdr.h
49	debug.h
50
51From SunOS 5.3 (aka 1093) on, SunSoft and SunPro will each own their own
52copies of these files and will fix bugs in them only as they relate to their
53own products.
