Here is some example output, it's like this for alot of files though.

When I print a bt I get the same line:

0x0000000000528da1 in __ns_initparse ()

I think by default gdb displays bt when the program exits abnormally. 
Is there a different flag then -g I should be feeding the compiler in
order to get more backtrace info?
