nitpick: trailing newline.

This target is not included in .PHONY and it does not seem to be phony after all, anyway. Why not use something like the following?

 cover_db: coverage-report
	gcov2perl...

It seems more intuitive to me, and once the makefile learns to track how long a coverage-report remains valid it would allow avoiding a rebuild of the cover_db.
