Sometimes, core dumps are either lost or difficult to analyze, for example 
because the binaries and/or libraries that were used at the time of the fault 
are no longer available.

To aid trouble shooting in such cases, the suggestion is to install a signal 
handler for fatal signals (SIGHUP, SIGILL, SIGABRT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGPIPE, 
SIGALARM, SIGTERM, SIGBUS). The signal handler should open a file and dump the 
stack trace to that file, and then re-raise the signal to continue standard 
signal handling. It should also check if the signal was sent by another 
process, and in that case dump the identity of the sender.
