Follow-up Comment #1, bug #22514 (project gnustep):

Is this with current code?
I ask because there's a known bug/feature that the stack address functions
provided by gcc can sometimes run off the end of the stack and cause bus
errors etc, but to handle this problem the stack trace code uses setjmp and a
signal handler to recover from running off the end of the stack ... so while
running under debug will get a SIGBUS signal and stop the debugger, this
should not mean that there is a problem with the running code.
