I believe gprof sources are included in the b18 sources.  That said,
they do not work because gcc -pg needs an mcount function that isn't
part of the i386-cygwin32 toolchain (whereever it needs to be).  I've
been intending to look into this but haven't had time yet.  (I bet the
Linux community has already solved this problem for Linux so we might
be able to learn from what they did).

Please let me know if anyone has gotten it working (or gets it working
soon).  Thanks!
