test case coverage ?



Hello there,

I'm wondering if anyone has tried out using the coverage flags
(-ftest-coverage -fprofile-arcs) on the G++ compiler itself ?

I tried this a few snapshots ago on Linux/i386, and couldn't
get it to work, but if anyone has got it to work on any version
of Linux, then please let me know.

I'm trying to find out what fraction of the G++ source code (gcc/cp/*.c)
is exercised by the current G++ test suite. 

A simple procedure for testing leading to egcs-1.1 would be to
ensure that some high fraction (90%+?) of the source code of the
compiler has been exercised by the test suite.

Regards
