Some of the Python tests error out when I run them in parallel like this.  The errors are:
[[[
W: profiling:/.../subversion/libsvn_subr/.libs/nls.gcda:Invocation mismatch - some data files may have been removed
]]]

I found an email <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2005-11/msg00074.html> which says "gcov instrumentation is multi-process safe, but not multi-thread safe. The
multi-processing safety relies on OS level file locking, which is not available
on some systems.".

OK, that part works.

Is there a command to reset the coverage statistics, that I can do before a test run if I don't want to 'make clean'?
