Yes, it's the problem.  You MUST also link with -pg to get profiling info.
Why do you think that you can't do it?  When I tried it it worked fine.

'gmon.out' is the profiling data your program (when compiled correctly)
outputs.  It is only output if you linked with -pg, however.  You can't create
it manually.
