dlopen() and -pg flag

[Lev Walkin]

-pg on your system implies static linking. dlopen() is not available in
statically linked binaries on FreeBSD and many other systems.

Consider building your binary dynamic by making sure there is a dynamic
version of libc with profiling support (something like /usr/lib/libc_p.so).

Otherwise, there seems to be no obvious way to do it.
