I think you need to keep pinging your patch until it gets reviewed.  It's 
also around the size where you may need to get the FSF copyright 
assignment in first before it can be committed.

The new option needs documenting in invoke.texi as well as gcov.texi.  
"xstrdup(arg)" should have a space: "xstrdup (arg)".  As you noted in your 
original submission, I think it would also be a good idea to separate the 
Windows CE patch to libgcov.c from the rest of the patch so they can be 
considered separately; it helps for patches to be submitted in minimal 
indivisible units.
