R help - Nov 2010 - memory profiling

I'm trying to configure Version 2.12.0 or R to do memory profiling.

I've reconfigured the code:

% ./compile --enable-memory-profiling=YES

and verified that it's configured correctly by examining the output.  I then
rebuild R:

% make

Then I fire up R and run a script, using Rprof with the memory-profiling
switch set to TRUE:

Rprof("output", memory.profiling=TRUE);
# a bunch of R code
Rprof(NULL);

When I examine the output, however, using either R CMD Rprof from the shell,
or summaryRprof from within R, the output I see is identical to the output I
got when I ran R BEFORE I recompiled with memory profiling enabled.

Anyone see something that I'm missing?

Thanks, Patrick

Wen I do

summaryRprof(memory="both")

I see an additional column ...

but since you have not said what you tried exactly, we cannot help very 
much.
