>What is symify? It keeps getting mentioned here. Or is this in the V2 faq?
>(I still have only the v1 faq.)

You ought to get the v2 faq then.  :)
But anyway, symify is an extremely useful debugging tool.  While the stack
trace from a program core dump is still on your screen, running symify will
identify the locations in your program corresponding to the locations shown
in the stack trace.  Make sure to compile with the -g option to get full
utility
from this feature, and run symify like so:

symify <path/name of your program>
