I've been trying to debug a program using dbx. The problem is an
unaligned reference, somewhere in many thousands of lines of code.
Unfortunately, dbx won't give a stack trace, line number, source file,
or any other useful information about the program in question when
the fault occurs. All it will do is give the name of of a C runtime
library routine (__dmul something or other), and an address. It doesn't
even show main in the stack trace!

Is dbx broken, or is there some magic I don't know about?
(Yes, the program was compiled with -g)

Thanks in advance.
