If the gprof section of binutils is properly built and installed, it 
should satisfy the mcount reference.
It's a bit strange to make a .o with -g -pg together, particularly when 
you don't link with the same options.
FWIW, latest version of Intel VTune works with cygwin builds with -g3 
-gdwarf-2 (and of course PATH considerations).
