If the "bt" output is just numbers and no symbols then it won't be of any use; in that case you'll need to find or build non-stripped Postgres executables. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
