Hi,

I have done some experiments with GCC's gcov and lcov to get the C code
coverage of our unit test suite. You may find today's report at

Thanks!

I took a quick poke around and it seems some things are legitimately not being executed, while others are error conditions that we wouldn't expect to occur (e.g. memory exhaustion). If we ever decide to get serious about code coverage (both C and Python code) we may need to have a discussion as a group about our feelings related to pragmas dictating when code should be left out of coverage reports.
