This is great. How did you generate [the coverage statistic]?

It was really a hack. I've configured python using

$ ./configure --enable-debug CC="gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage" CXX="c++ gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage"

(I hate distutils!)

Then I installed numpy and ran numpy.test(). Some linalg related tests failed which should be fixed by figuring out how to pass -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage options to the fortran compiler.

The only non-obvious step in using gcov was that I had to tell it where to find object files:

$ gcov -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.4/numpy/core/src numpy/core/src/*.c

... What happens if you run the scipy test suite?

I don't know because I don't use scipy. Sorry.
