Hey Paul,
  Thanks for bringing this up.  We'd definitely like to fix the issues that
are identified by coverity.

To start looking at issues, sign up for a coverity account:
https://scan.coverity.com/users/sign_up

After you log in, search for the coreboot project and click the 'Add me to
project' button.  You should be able to see the project and issues as soon
as this is done.  I believe someone needs to approve your member request
before you can update any of the issues.

We had a bad run last night, so it didn't analyze the full coreboot tree.
We're limited to running the scan twice a week, so we'll try again
tomorrow.  I don't see a way to view the defects that were removed because
of this, so we'll want to wait a day or two to start digging into issues.

We're looking at setting this up as an automated weekly test run.

Martin
