They are not generated by a standard build so they don't belong
here. Put then in your local ignore file.

Is best practice to confine these to a particular folder (like you get
with -fprofile-dir)?  Is there a switch to do that for gcov data?

Thanks,

Due to limitations of my patch -fprofile-dir (or passing arguments to
-fprofile-* is unsupported). All it allows you can do is pass
"--coverage", "-fprofile-generate" or "-fprofile-use" to winegcc
without arguments. It started as a hack to enable gcov and evolved
into a hack to enable PGO and gcov.
