People who use gprof to profile DJGPP programs in v2.01, please note that 
the stock v2.01 distribution has a bug in the library which will cause 
the profiled program to crash for most system configurations.  Known 
exceptions are: vanilla DOS (no memory manager such as EMM386 or QEMM), 
and systems where the memory manager is told to not map the region of the 
video RAM which corresponds to the monochrome text.

A workaround and a patch which will fix this bug are available on the 
DJGPP bug-tracking system (http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/bugs/), bug 
number 126.
