I think they're saying it's not covered: not only because `call` isn't ever reached but also because they identify `jae` as a branch and see it's always not taken. (If there were no lines in your `; later...` section and the branch were always taken, they'd still identify the `jae` as not covered.)

It might be reasonable to redefine their metric as "100% branch coverage except for panics"...if you can reliably determine that `jae .Lpanic_label` is a panic jump. It's obvious to us reading your example of course but I don't know that the compiler guarantees panics always "look like that", and only panics look like that.
