Profile-directed feedback and remote testing

When we generate data for feedback, we insert the .gcda name into the
object file as an absolute path. As a result, when we try to do remote
testing, we lose, as, in general the remote file system does not have
the same file hierarchy as the build system.
I understand why we generate an asbolute path; we want to make sure that
the data ends up there, not in the directory where the user happens to
run the program. So, I intend to disable these tests when $host !=
$target. Any objections, or better ideas?
