Possibly. I just looked through gcov-io.c and there are several
additional functions that are only defined under "#ifdef IN_LIBGCOV"
and only used in libgcov*c (or each other):
gcov_write_counter
gcov_write_tag_length
gcov_write_summary
gcov_seek
Should they all, plus gcov_rewrite, be moved to libgcov-driver.c?
