Unable to collect coverage for subprocesses running in different directories

[nahco314]

Describe the bug In Python 3.8.2, coverage 6.5.0.

I am trying to measure the coverage of a test using subprocess.

If I start a subprocess in a different directory than the original directory, a data file will be generated in that directory.

Moving the data file to the original directory and combine&report will generate a report that does not reflect the execution of the sub-process.

To Reproduce

A simple example : ./main.py

import os
import subprocess

orig = os.getcwd()
os.chdir("./d")
subprocess.run(
    ["python", f"{orig}/sub.py"],
    env={
        **os.environ,
        "COVERAGE_PROCESS_START": f"{orig}/pyproject.toml",
        "PYTHONPATH": f"{orig}",
    },
)
os.chdir(orig)

./sub.py

print("Hello,World!")

./pyproject.toml

[tool.coverage.run]
branch = true
source = ["."]
parallel = true
omit = ["sitecustomize.py"]

./sitecustomize.py

import coverage
coverage.process_startup()

print("Loaded!")

$ coverage run main.py
Loaded!
Hello,World!
$ ls -a ./d
. .. .coverage.nahco314-pc.16642.385055

Expected behavior I would like coverage results that include Python execution in sub-processes.

Additional context If only directory moves are pulled out and executed, coverage is generated successfully.

Output of coverage debug sys:
