Oh, so you rebuilt with debug enabled and then retrospectively tried to
use that executable with a core file from a previous executable? Yeah,
I'm unsurprised that that didn't work :-( ... perhaps it would in an
ideal world, but it's unreliable in the real world. Make sure you have
the debug-enabled build installed as the running server so the next
corefile can be examined meaningfully.
