<p>Comment (by Roland Haas):</p>
<p>Is it worthwhile to have and maintain such a script? We already give the <code>addr2line</code> command line at the bottom of each <code>backtrace.<rank>.txt</code> file. Plus, often one actually needs to use <code>gdb</code> and its <code>info line *<address></code> command (and a core dump) either b/c of address space randomization (laptops) or b/c <code>addr2line</code> is older than <code>gdb</code>.</p>
<p>Ie. do the benefits outweigh the effort?</p>
