Details

For various reasons, the `source.file.name` coming out of local code coverage tools does not exist in the repository. For example, this can be because the code is copied to a common directory before compilation, or sources are auto-generated before compilation. 

The meta problem is figuring out what files can not be found in the repo, and a script should be made that will calculate this, ?on a daily basis?, for us.

In the medium term we can use this script to identify specific problems to solve.  In the long term this script can be used to ensure the system is consistent.
It should be possible to detect them by looking at the first directory of the path. If it is 'obj-firefox', it is a generated file.
This is fixed, or no longer an issue
