I missed this in my searches. I see now that I should have used the
"debug" category.

I've been having trouble getting that number right

Another problem is that there's only one stack frame in the stack
dump, so knowing that it's a strlen just means I have to crank out
some grep commands and hopefully one of them is vulnerable to a
special case that now happens all the time.

The crashing executable is just a client of SpiderMonkey (via
libmozjs185) with several extensions to JavaScript in order to emulate
some of the Windows cscript utility and to emulate another environment
that happens to be a massive annoyance to run scripts in. The
executable is built using a textbook Makefile.
