This kind of problem "ptrace: Operation not permitted." is common when you run 
some of your daemons as non-root.  The core dump is produced as root because 
Bacula is started as root, but as user "bacula" gdb won't work.

One solution is for obtaining a traceback, run bacula as root. This is most 
appropriate for a one-shot reproducible case.  Another solution might be to 
put the appropriate command (e.g. sudo) in the btraceback script so that the 
debugger is able to do its job.

Kern
