I think the writing of profiling information on process exit is supposed accumulate information if you're running more than one instance of the profiled program. Unfortunately, the code in gcc-2.x's libgcc that does this doesn't do any file locking, so you lose if running several instances simultaneously. I've had this problem when using gcov a while ago. Is it the same problem you're trying to solve? The bug is fixed in gcc-3, and I also have a patch for gcc-2.95 somewhere if you're interested.
