We're using "gcov" regularly on a project I'm working on.  (For some
reason I can't get "gprof" to give me meaningful data, even though
"gcov" works fine.)

The whole setup is for various reasons a bit complex, but in its
essense, it reduces to:

   project Build is
      [...]

      package Compiler is
         for Default_Switches ("Ada") use ([...],
                                           "-fprofile-arcs",
                                           "-ftest-coverage");
      end Compiler;

      package Linker is
         for Default_Switches ("Ada") use ([...],
                                           "-pg",
                                           "-fprofile-arcs");
      end Linker;
   end Build;

Greetings,

Jacob
