Coincidentally enough, the stack walking code in cygwin drew some
inspiration from this.

I haven't looked at it recently, but I really doubt that the code would
deal with the stabs symbol table that gcc/gas/ld use and allow symbolic
representation of symbols.

The hints I gave in my previous email really are the best way to go on
this.
