Be careful in reading posts on this group. The fact that Ted cannot manage on his own to get something working does not mean that it does not work :-), and the analysis in the second sentence is bogus and incorrect. In fact gprof works with GNAT on Windows on GCC 2 and we have several of our customers successfully using it. Preliminary tests on GCC 3 seem to show that the behavior is the same, but since we do not have a GCC 3 based product yet, we do not have customers using gprof on GCC 3.
