S/he has something wrong with the compiler. With -fasynchronous-unwind-tables frame pointer unwinding is never needed and gcc defaults to -fasynchronous-unwind-tables on x86_64. This is why I haven't implemented it originally as it only paper overs the real problem and it leads to unreliable backtraces in longterm. Jan
