--- Comment #21 from Melven.Roehrig-Zoellner at DLR dot de --- Hi, for me the patch seems to solve the problem only for some of the Fortran files. I applied the patch in my GCC 9.1.0 build and I still have 4 files where gcov does not seem to terminate (running for over an hour now). Would it help to provide source and gcda files?
