Thanks for the suggestion! I've just done that, and commited the new version to CVS. I was able to get 82% of coverage observating gcov's output:
82.07% of 1372 source lines executed in file ./Modules/_sre.c
FYI, I took some time to write an overview of the procedure in my (wiki|web)log:
Of course you can always patch the Makefile and add "-fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage" to the OPT variable. The best solution would be to add a new configure option --with-coverage. BTW, I'm currently working on a new coverage tool. The mayor difference to Skip's tools is that the coverage information is imported into a database, so coverage information can be tracked over time.
