I am now using the "-a" option to block-profile code on a sparc-sunos-4.1.3
system.  This generates a file called "bb.out" when I execute the code.
I would like to use tcov (or gcov) to analyze this data so I can correspond
basic-block numbers with the correct blocks of source code.
However, the man page of gcc says the following:
 
     -a   Generate extra code to write  profile  information  for
          basic  blocks,  which  will  record the number of times
          each basic block  is  executed.   This  data  could  be
          analyzed  by  a program like tcov.  Note, however, that
          the format of the data is not what tcov expects.  Even-
          tually  GNU  gprof  should  be extended to process this
          data.

I was wondering if gprof had been extended as the above mentions (this
is an old man page).  If not, how can I manipulate the bb.out file to 
make it into something that tcov understands?  (There is no ".d" file
created when I compile either.)  

	Thanks!

P.S  Any info on block profiling code for the HP platform would also be much
appreciated!
