g++ and -gcoff

I'm trying to profile a C++ program that I've built with g++ 3.1.1 under Cygwin on Windows XP Pro.
I can use gprof, but the results are not ideal, so I thought I'd try out Rational Quantify on a 15 day free evaluation. When I compile with g++ -g, Quantify says there are no debugging symbols, presumably because it's expecting COFF format, so I tried compiling with g++ -gcoff. However, this causes a fatal error in as (2.12.90) when compiling any of my C++ files:
"Fatal error: C_EFCN symbol out of scope"
I also get the same error if I compile on NT 4.0/Cygwin with g++ 3.1 20020423 (prerelease), as version 2.11.92, and I've attached a sample assembler output file VeryLong.s which gives this error.

I've seen some references to this error in the mailing lists, but I can't find a solution anywhere.

Anyone got any ideas?

TIA

Chris
