I was aware of those things you mentioned.
Ofcourse all the things that are needed would have to be copied, else code
wouldn't even work anymore.

It looks it's really too difficult to bother. I was hoping there was some easy
way to do it, using some existing preprocessor or something. Maybe I will copy it
by hand or simply leave it as it is.

No.
I have already written this profile library. It simply measures how much time
was spent in a block of code and how many times it was run. Ofcourse I have to
put two procedures around the block of code I want to profile, a little more work
than using with profile, but there are some other advantages (besides i made me a
macro in msdev which automatically puts this code in, so it's not much trouble):
start_profiler ("profiler name")

<code>
end_profiler ("profiler name")
