Currently enable, disable methods are only supported by Profile class of cProfile module, not profile module. But the docs doesn't give this information. I think we should, at least mention it, in the docs.

[bombs-kim]

To elaborate, the docs simply says "Both the profile and cProfile modules provide the following functions... enable(), disable(), create_stats() ..."
