gcov can only report coverage data for lines for which GCC generated
actual code. While I don't have any experience with Fortran 90, my guess
would be that "use some_module" does not actually generate code.

Also turning off all optimization options when compiling the code in
question can help improve the accuracy of gcov/lcov. See also:
