I fiddled around with sitecustomize.py, defining COVERAGE_PROCESS_START,
and tweaking the --concurrency flag. Nothing worked. In fact, my code
coverage went to zero. :-(

I then looked at the flask docs to see if it had some clues and noticed
its run command has a --no-reload flag. Setting that worked like a charm.
Since I'm not actively fiddling on-the-fly when running tests, that's
perfect. Now I have nice coverage stats. I figured I'd toss out my solution
in case someone else comes along looking for flask+coverage assistance.
