AW: AW: AW: Problem using gcov

[Alexander Fichtinger <alexander dot fichtinger at logicals dot com>]

Ok, thanks for the info.

I just saw the description in the bug-report.
When we document this for our customers, it's ok, I think. 

Thanks and kind regards,
Alexander

I did, but as described in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=84572#c1

Thank you for understanding,
Martin
