Is this unfortunate copy-paste or does "gcov failed: File ..." part appears on
the same line as "FAIL: g++.dg/gcov/gcov-8.C  -std=gnu++98"?

If it is the latter, then the problem is, likely, in testing harness mixing up
file descriptors, and sending 1st line of output to a wrong file.  This causes
the failure since pattern for the first line doesn't match.
