I didn't know it exists. :)

lcov --exclude was introduced by lcov commit v1.14~19; yes, we can check
whether e.g. "lcov --exclude=/ --version" works. Alternatively, we could
use --directory option, but that would require some discipline in
maintaining the list of directories. What's your preferred choice?

By the way, I'm not sure whether we need -$(PACKAGE_VERSION) in
COVERAGE_OUTPUT_FILE and COVERAGE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY.

I suppose the difference between --exclude and -d is only visible when
srcdir != builddir. If these directories are different, then
update-coverage.sh will likely miss some information because of this
explicit list of directories.
