Created by Michael Hudson-Doyle and last modified

This branch lets you get a combo C/Python backtrace from a Python program. Handy for figuring out issues that only happen in production!

Get your self a core file (maybe using gcore) and run python backtrace.py -c $core file.

You can also run python backtrace.py $pid to get the backtrace from a running process.

You'll need to have the python debug symbols installed (i.e. python2.6-dbg). Currently only works on 64-bit machines, but not for very deep reasons.
