No makefiles required:

   gcc -Wall -O2 -g -o symify symify.c -ldbg

or, since you probably changed syms.c:

   gcc -Wall -O2 -g -o symify symify.c syms.c -ldbg

This is impractical: I only see this once in a while with Emacs, which
is a 60MB source distribution.  (Now, with the patched syms.c, I don't
see the crashes anymore ;-)  When I did see that, copying the same
binary to another machine would usually prevent the crashes from
happening, since, as I now understand, random memory contents was
involved.
