Of course I'm using "-g -O0" when I want to debug something.
I'm complaining about the facts that
  1. gdb doesn't stop the process before it's about to crash,
  2. the testduplocale.exe.stackdump file contains a list of addresses
     (from the stack), and it would be useful if gdb showed this
     as a stack trace. But it doesn't.
