This note was specific to the Gentoo package. Do you run Gentoo? I was
merely verifying what he said earlier about adjusting the make.conf
file in Gentoo to not strip the binaries. It does not work correctly
with wine as documented on the Gentoo site. You get ?? symbols when
running gdb.

I found I got actual backtrace data, register dump and stack dump when
I ran winedbg "name_of_app", then typing the finish command. I was
just trying to be helpful. In fact, it looked a lot like the backtrace
data Mark just posted.
