New description:

 When compiling with '-lprofiler' pops error below:

 ```ld: library not found for -lprofiler```

 -------------------------------------------

 Other information that maybe useful:

 1. gcc version is 5.4.0 (MacPorts gcc5 5.4.0_0)
 2. cannot find libprofiler library in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib and so on

Comment:

 1. What version of MacPorts gcc you have installed is immaterial; most
 ports, including google-perftools, use the compilers they specify, which
 is most often the version of clang provided by Xcode.
 2. MacPorts does not install files in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib; it
 installs in its own prefix, which is usually /opt/local. However, I can
 confirm that the port does not install libprofiler.dylib in
 /opt/local/lib.

 I do see this output from the configure phase:

 {{{
 checking how to access the program counter from a struct ucontext...
 configure: WARNING: Could not find the PC.  Will not try to compile
 libprofiler...
 }}}

 I don't know how to work around that problem.

 We should try updating the port to version 2.5 which is now available from
 https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools/releases
