The example looks correct to me.

We have glibc/elf/tst-sprof-basic.sh to verify basic operation of sprof
(though we test it wrapped using the newly built ld.so, so we might improve
this with a containerized test).

It doesn't fail for me on a glibc-2.39 test system I have right now, but
I haven't verified the data is correct either.

If this is failing for you please submit a bug upstream to glibc and we'll review.

We shouldn't document every bug in the man-pages.

We should verify the examples keep working though.
