Bug ID: 88994
Summary: [GCOV] encoding (or unicode) error with gcov/gcc9 when
generating filename
Product: gcc
Version: 9.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: gcov-profile
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: moussu.robin at pm dot me
CC: marxin at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Hello,
I filled first a bug on gcovr bug-tracker, and they eventually redirected me
here.
https://github.com/gcovr/gcovr/issues/292
All steps to reproduce the bug (and a lot of details on the output of the
various commands I run is present on the above link.
gcov is trying to create a filename with an extremely strange name: '
pn+\x89\x7f' (with a leading space, and invalid unicode sequence).
Here is a sum-up of what I think is relevant to gcov. Fell free to ask me any
additional details.
```

Notice the difference when I'm using `LANG=C` in the filename.
