it looks like the wrong filename (ie, the name of the source
file (junk.c), rather than the name of the profile data file
(junk.d)) gets put in the generated code when you use -a with
gcc...The result is that when you run the resulting program,
it commits suicide (by stomping on its source file).  :-(
