Change makefile for profiling ?

[Axel Etzold]

Dear all,

I have doenloaded a (quite large GNU-licensed) software package that implements 
a script language for some very specific calculations.
This software makes use of all sorts of libraries written in C for 
arbitrary precision calculations, export to Gnuplot etc.

It is installed using the usual make-make install process on Linux.

Is there a way I could change the Makefile such that profiling 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profiling_(computer_programming))
can be enabled ?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Axel
