Summary0000558: The mprof.1 manpage is currupt
DescriptionThe mprof.1 manpage contains:

.TH 1 "2022-04-21" "Mercury Programmer's Manual"
\&../scripts/mprof: 24: exec: ../profiler/mercury_profile: not found

Steps To ReproduceBuild the source distribution, don't need to install, look in doc/mprof.1
Additional InformationThe script/mprof script fails to execute ../profiler/mercury_profile, it's unclear why, that executable exists.

A second problem is that the mprof script lacks the -e flag causing the error to be ignored.

The compiler and profiler directories are missing as dependencies from the doc target in the top-level Mmakefile. (As well as any other directories containing executables that we generated manual pages for.)
