I've uploaded the latest Mingw runtime sources (and prebuilt binaries for
both CRTDLL and MSVCRT versions) that include the profiling support code
gcrt?.o and libgmon.a.

ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/mingw32/runtime/

You want the 1999-11-07 version.

If you don't have a gprof.exe binary for native windows32, then you can
use the one in:

ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/mingw32/ports/gprof-exe.zip

You'll certainly need to add a few bits to the GCC specs file to add -pg 
support, but that's pretty trivial.

Please understand that I in no way suport this for anything other than
folks using *my* GCC distribution. I doubt if I will have the time to
answer questions regarding usage, compiling, installation, ... sorry.
