Thank you for your reply and the explanation. That requires quite a bit 
of knowledge before addr2line is usable - no wonder I've never had

Back to the matter in hand - I don't suppose you had thoughts on why my 
simple application crashes when linked as shared, but works fine when 
linked statically?

Dave.
