Comment (by warner):

 Actually, I take that back, I think `coverage run` is *not* providing good
 data yet. I see make `__init__.py` files being covered, but nothing else.
 I suspect that something is spawning a subprocess, or somehow the bulk of
 the test code is not executing while `coverage` is watching for it.

 (I vaguely remember something like this being the reason that I wrote that
 plugin in the first place).

 I'll investigate more.
