This small libbacktrace patch suggests compiling with -g (and, on
macOS, running dsymutil), if there is no debug info. Ran libbacktrace
testsuite. Committed to mainline.
Ian
* elf.c (elf_nodebug): Suggest -g.
* macho.c (macho_nodebug): Suggest -g and dsymutil.
* pecoff.c (coff_nodebug): Suggest -g.
