Just a general remark, using bitbake -e -b libsoup.bb you will see what
bitbake has as input and how it is expanding it... also look at OVERRIDES to
see if maybe something 'stronger' is winning.

For gprof... a couple of years back there was some work to make it work in the
cross compilation environment, I assume by default it will still try to create
the .gc* files in the path of your build directory.... you will most likely
need to create these on the device.
