Do you have some futher changes to the area in queue?  If not, I will
probably update my patch to avoid second pass and kill the max_sum
field so we will be able to use gcov in parallel make environment.
Looks like sane plan?
yes. I've looked over your patch and it seems fine. getting it to apply
with the patch I just posted would be good. Once both are in, I'll
continue with my plan, which consists of (in no particular order)

* Remove the dependency on stdio in the runtime. We will use plain filenos.
(that will be #if'd in some way, because we'll want stdio on the host side)
* Remove the dependency on malloc, by allocating a static buffer and paging
the file through it
* Extend the tags to work with other count data in a sensible way.
