Sorry.   When you do a "bt" using gdb, you see the function
names, whether they be "static" or have global (external)
linkage.  The function backtrace_symbols(), on the other
hand, doe *not* print static scope function names.  Even if
it takes some work, I'd like to "fix" the constraint.  However,
I wasn't able to decipher the gdb source well enough to figure
out how it accomplished this feat.  So, is there some place
in the GDB source where I ought to be looking?

Thank you!
