--- Comment #17 from Michael Duggan <mwd at md5i dot com> --- Gcov doesn't have access to the function declaration, only to the information that has been output to the count and graph files. Neither of those contain any information (as far as I can tell) that would identify a function as an actor function other than the name. These files could potentially be augmented, but that would require a gcov version bump and updating the code to DTRT based on the version. That is beyond what I'm interested in implementing currently. (For that matter, I'm not certain how best, even in gcc itself, to determine if a function is an actor function after it has been created other than its name. I don't think it flags it with anything special other than the artificial flag.)
