As someone else has pointed out, you can use `nm' to list the symbol
table of a shared library (both imports and exports).
__register_frame_info is defined in recent versions of libX11. The
above error message indicates that either the program, or one of the
libraries that it uses, has been linked against a more recent version
of libX11 than the one that you have.
