Another drawback that I recognized as an afterthought, yesterday night:
gcov-support will not work in non-LFN situations. The filenames it uses
(source.c.bb, source.c.bbg, source.c.da and source.c.gcov)  require LFN
support. The filename generation mechanism may have to be re-thought, for
8.3 filesystems.
