[Vm-dev] Smalltalk stack dump from gdb

Hi Eliot and Everyone,

Is it possible to print out a smalltalk stack dump from within gdb
(while debugging a plugin)?

The latest changes I'm making to fix UTF8 support in
FileAttributesPlugin are causing a segmentation fault, but I can only
trigger it during image startup and the fault occurs after returning
from the primitive.  I assume I'm corrupting memory somewhere, but
haven't been able to track it down yet.

Wishing I was at ESUG,
Alistair
