If the program you are profiling was built with DJGPP v2.02, then please 
note that there's a bug in profiling code in libc.a, which causes gprof 
to produce bogus results, no matter what switches do you use.

If your libc.a is not from v2.02, please post examples of profiles with 
and without the switches you mention.
