You shouldn't have to touch Makefile.global; there's a parameter built
into the makefiles for this. Just do

cd .../src/backend
make clean
make PROFILE="-pg" all

(Quoting syntax might be different on Windows, but as long as it's
GNU make I'd expect this to work.)

I tend to abuse the PROFILE option for any old random compile/link flags
I'd like to add to a particular build ...
