How can I get perf to find symbols in my program

Question

When using perf report, I don\'t see any symbols for my program, instead I get output like this:

$ perf record /path/to/racket ints.rkt 10000
$ pe

You can always use the '$ nm ' command.

here is some sample output:

Ethans-MacBook-Pro:~ phyrrus9$ nm a.out
0000000100000000 T __mh_execute_header
0000000100000f30 T _main
                 U _printf
0000000100000f00 T _sigint
                 U _signal
                 U dyld_stub_binder
