If you enable heap profiling and then use hp2ps to generate a graph it
 occasionally reports records out of order.  The reason is the time tag at
 the beginning and end of each record, which is printed with two decimal
 places.  When the time reaches an integer number of seconds it is printed
 as e.g. 6.100 instead of 7.00.  hp2ps interprets this as 6.1 seconds.

 This applies to at least 6.4, 6.4.1 and 6.4.2.  I've seen it on Windows,
 but I expect it applies to other OSes as well.
