Patch to fix incorrect ChangeLog entry


Please check this in - this typeo is frustrating if you're trying
to trace the history of lookup_block_symbol.  There is no such
function as block_lookup_symbol.

By the way, why isn't this patch in the sources?
	http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-q1/msg00022.html

This is Tom Tromey's patch to add a "maint profile-gdb" command
and an --enable-profile to configure switch enable it.  It's
invaluable if you're trying to look into performance problems -
you enable profiling for the handful of gdb commands you care about,
then turn it off right away.  It helps keep the noise level low so
you can easily spot your problem.  I found the source of my prolem
(guess which func :-) a minute after I had a gdb compiled with his
patch.

I would be happy to update the patch to the current sources and
repost it.  I'll probably do that even if I hear nothing from anyone
here. :-)  I applied it against the Apple gdb sources and the only
tricky bit was the patch to gdbint.texinfo, which applied incorrectly
without it being obvious that it failed.
