Hi!

I have a multithreaded program which coredumps after ~20 hours of
running.
Is it possible to see which thread caused the crash?
Usually I use thr x and bt for seeing if some exception was thrown, but
I have a case where no thread is throwing any exceptions.

I've enclosed output from the actual core dump.. any other cmd's I
should know of?
Any help on discovering why it is crashing would be greatly
appreciated..

/Steffen

Generally the first thread that comes up is the one that crashed.

Ok but it doesn't show me much. Hmm.. 

My stack must have been overwritten:

How do you go about chasing a bug like this?

Maybe try getting system libraries with debugging; GDB has apparently
not got enough information to backtrace out of libpthread.so.2.
