Hmm... I cannot find the URL for the site just now. Check the archives. I
think you could look for anything sent to `djgpp-announce' by Tom Demmer in
the last year or so.

However, as Tom pointed out, they were built with GCC 2.7.2.x. I don't see
any reason why the basic profiling scheme in 2.8.x should be different, so I
would be inclined to go ahead and try the existing prebuilt library. I
suspect it will be obvious if it doesn't work. If not, you will have to
rebuild libc if you want this functionality. That is a non-trivial task, but
I have some tips and patches if you really want to do it.
