I do get profiling output from the rest of my program. But any 
information regarding mpz_ function is omitted.

Adding function foo() does indeed show up as being called once in the 
program. Details listed here:

And ldd a.out shows:
mcbain at bellini:~/tmp$ ldd a.out
        libgmp.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libgmp.so.3 (0x00002b528fcd3000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00002b528ff22000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00002b528fab5000)


Still no clue to whats wrong.
