[SOLVED] Firefox 8.0-1 ABS build failed "xpcshell: undefined symbol"

I am trying to build firefox 8.0-1 on my machine but has the following error during packaging phase:

/var/tmp/firefox/src/mozilla-release/ff-pgo/dist/bin/xpcshell: symbol lookup error: /var/tmp/firefox/src/mozilla-release/ff-pgo/dist/bin/xpcshell: undefined symbol: __gcov_indirect_call_profiler
make[2]: *** [install] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/firefox/src/mozilla-release/ff-pgo/browser/installer'
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/firefox/src/mozilla-release/ff-pgo'
make: *** [install] Error 2
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...

I ran the command '/var/tmp/firefox/src/mozilla-release/ff-pgo/dist/bin/xpcshell' directly and got the same error "undefined symbol: __gcov_indirect_call_profiler".

I am using gcc 4.6 and found the libgcov.a in '/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.6.2/libgcov.a'
