    Improve the backtrace to print symbols when backtrace_symbols() is available · e8475918
    Ondřej Surý authored
    The previous commit removed the code related to the internal symbol
    table.  On platforms where available, we can now use backtrace_symbols()
    to print more verbose symbols table to the output.
    
    As there's now general availability of backtrace() and
    backtrace_symbols() functions (see below), the commit also removes the
    usage of glibc internals and the custom stack tracing.
    
    * backtrace(), backtrace_symbols(), and backtrace_symbols_fd() are
      provided in glibc since version 2.1.
    * backtrace(), backtrace_symbols(), and backtrace_symbols_fd() first
      appeared in Mac OS X 10.5.
    * The backtrace() library of functions first appeared in NetBSD 7.0 and
      FreeBSD 10.0.
