Bug report

Bug description:

When I run ./configure --enable-optimizations (for Profile Guided Optimization) with my gcc of Cygwin (old, win7 32-bit), I'm getting errors due to unspecified library gcov
The instruction export LIBS="-lgcov" before this command solves the problem
I think this lib should be enabled by default with PGO building

My CPython version: 3.14.4

CPython versions tested on:

3.14
