The obtained code by this patch is a bit of a mess... plus there is a bunch of
other problems (I've posted another mail with the description of the
problems).
The patch below is a partial solution to all them...

Correctly export __gcov_init for cases where it's needed, by adding a weak
definition for the case when GCC does not define this symbol and letting it
being overriden by the real definition when GCC defines it (recent ones).
Can't be implemented as a test on GCC version because SuSE has a crippled GCC,
declared as 3.3.4 but having a lot of backported features.
Also, since gcc 3.4.3 requires profiling options even during linking, avoid
adding profiling options for compilation of userspace utilities (where they
are not needed). And add profiling options to final link stage.
