Problem with gprof for code containing static functions


I've been encountering some problems using gprof (GNU gprof (GNU Binutils) 2.24.51.20140623) in the most recent cygwin (32 bits) . Basically gprof seems to be missing static functions calls in the flat profile report. For the attached source file (compiled with -Wall -g -pedantic -std=c99 -pg -O0) if I disable the USE_STATIC macro the flat report seems ok. 
Each sample counts as 0.01 seconds.

But if I enable it (making those functions static) I get pretty weird results:

Is this a known issue?
