Dunno. But the development binaries should have such symbols, I believe.

If you can provide a complete recipe from ##emacs -Q##, that would be great. Use `M-x report-emacs-bug'. FWIW, I too get lots of crashes with Emacs 24 (24.1, 24.2, and development versions). Others have also reported crashes since 24.1. Having a recipe to reproduce the problem makes a big difference. So if you have a recipe, please help us all by submitting a bug report.
