libsimple.c 's contents:

__declspec(dllexport) int add2Ints(int a, int b)
{
    return a + b;
}
_________

> gcc -c libsimple.c
> gcc -pg -mdll -o libsimple.dll libsimple.o

gave me a DLL. Test program testlib.c

#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
int ret = -1;
HINSTANCE hInst = LoadLibrary(L"libsimple.dll");
if (hInst)
{
ret = FreeLibrary(hInst);
}
return ret;
}
_________
compiles fine with gcc -g -o testlib.exe -DUNICODE testlib.c

When testlib.exe is run, the FreeLibrary call hangs. I confirmed this in gdb.

The same DLL when linked without the -pg option works fine.
Linking the DLL with just -g or just -p works fine too.

Now on MinGW 4.6.1 I've tried the same exercise and there -pg, -p or -g all the three works fine.
