Can you make a try to add the -u and -g option to the startproc program instead of the bacula daemon? When you have a problem such as a segfault, the process can't attach gdb to itself because the uid/gid changed from root to a normal user (ptrace problem). I don't know if suse has this problem or not, can you try the backtrace generation with a simple kill -ABRT $(pidof bacula-dir) ? You should find the backtrace file somewhere with full information.
