I'm sorry but I don't know the answer to your question.  :(

profile_rt is not very important unless you are doing things with profile
guided feedback.  Feel free to turn it off in your local tree by removing
'libprofile' from the llvm/runtime/Makefile file.  Actually, looking at
mainline CVS, it appears that libprofile has been disabled for sparcs, so
I think that this situation is known (at least by someone)...
