Currently, cProfile output displays "built-in functions" (i.e. module functions implemented in C, such as hasattr()) using only their names. This is not very useful when those functions may be provided by any third-party library. Attached patch adds the module name (as provided by __module__) to the output.

The patch looks good to me. I didn't test it, but I see that the change is already tested by existing tests.
