Sorry, I thought you were on FreeBSD from your post earlier today.
The traceback uses dbx only on Solaris (aka SunOS), but I have no idea if it
works. Also, AFAICS, gcore is not really necessary (it simply dumps an
additional file).
On all other platforms, that script you are quoting should be using gdb.
