patch for libgcov

When a user takes coverage in gcc of SDK, it becomes the link error in SDK 
because there is not libgcov.a.

Nobuhiro, your patch looks correct except for doing a "PR" bump, can you please submit this patch to the openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org, which is the correct way to propose patches for the project.  Thanks
