As far as I remember the x86_64 related problems of the gcov-kernel patch were not compile problems, but non-trivial run-time errors when starting the init process. I can't debug those myself so we'd need someone with x86_64 kernel knowledge to help out. I'm planning to post the gcov-kernel patch rewrite later on and I'd like to postpone this particular discussion until the new code base has been published.
