I just confirmed I successfully built bind10_dns.so with --with-lcov.

My ./configure options are:

./configure --with-gtest=/Users/jinmei/obj --with-boost-lib=${HOME}/opt/lib --with-boost-include=${HOME}/opt/include --prefix=${HOME}/opt --with-lcov

and as far as I can see there's no shlib version of libgcov:

% otool -L run_unittests
run_unittests:
	/Users/jinmei/obj/lib/libgtest.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.9.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 125.0.1)

and I'm sure this run_unittests was built with -lgcov.

It's MacOS 10.6.3 (64bit) if it matters (perhaps there's a special
apple hack for libtool).

But in any case I think we can work around this.  We don't need to
specify -lgcov for everything, so I guess we can selectively add
-lgcov for limited applications.
