Description Kevin Zeits 2009-04-06 23:47:38 UTC 
using a MinGW build of gcov 'gcov (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)' --preserve paths cause mangled output filenames. Say there is a file called C:/foo/bar.gcda calling 'gcov C:/foo/bar.gcda -o foo --preserve-paths -b' from 'C:\' causes the file 'foo#bar.gcov' to be output in in 'c:\' instead of 'bar.gcov' being produced in 'c:\foo\'

test case: zip file containing example project.

unzipping and runing 'make coverage_bad' shows the problem.
Comment 2 Andrew Pinski 2009-04-06 23:51:34 UTC 
Can you try a newer GCC?  3.4.x has not been supported for a while.
Comment 3 Kai Tietz 2010-10-18 08:31:44 UTC 
On trunk there was a patch for gcov and DOS paths (see at revision 165596).
Could you please verify if this problem was solved by it?

Thanks in advance,
Kai
