Right, so the claim that -pg implies -fno-omit-frame-pointer is wrong, and that
means there is no bug in GCC. Looking at the latest docs, there is no mention
of frame pointer for the -pg option, and neither does -fomit-frame-pointer
discuss -pg. So this dependency must have been removed some time ago.

GCC correctly reports the error for that. So this can be closed then.
