`gmon.out' is the file that gets created by your program when you run 
it.  Do you mean that you run the program compiled with -pg, but no 
`gmon.out' is created?

That may mean that your program somehow tweaks the file handle that is 
used to write to `gmon.out', or that DJGPP has a bug that goes away when 
the standard handles are redirected by `redir'.
