Log:
Apply patch #1078: Expand the GDB exceptionhandler.

With our current backtrace dumps I quite oftenly find that in case of 
segfaults, which combined with assert failures are the most common crash cause, 
I cannot easily see what value the dereferenced pointer held.

To be able to see this the exception handler will now invoke the "disassemble" 
and "info registers" commands when producing a back trace using GDB. This gives 
us the ability to see the precise assembly instruction that triggered the 
crash, together with the value of the register that was used as pointer.
