Subject: Move gcov file merging stuff out of cover -test
Currently, -gcov only has any effect when used in conjunction with -test. It would be nice if the "run the tests with gcov" part was separated from the "merge the gcov output into the Devel::Cover output" so that "cover -gcov" would do something. This is helpful for when "cover -test" isn't applicable, like with Module::Build.
And here's the patch.

Another patch that I applied a long time ago but never closed the ticket. Thanks again,
