Hi. I'm sending fix for DOS-based system, it's a compilation error that I introduced some time ago. Plus I add Jonathan's correction of a documentation entry.

Both absolute and relative paths can be used. By default, GCC uses the current directory as @var{path}, thus the profile data file appears in the same directory as the object file. -In order to prevent filename clashing, if object file name is not an absolute -path, we mangle absolute path of @file{@var{sourcename}.gcda} file and -use it as file name of a @file{.gcda} file. +In order to prevent the file name clashing, if the object file name is +not an absolute path, we mangle the absolute path of the +@file{@var{sourcename}.gcda} file and use it as the file name of a +@file{.gcda} file. When an executable is run in a massive parallel environment, it is recommended to save profile to different folders. That can be done with variables
