Then, i suspect that some function is called with function pointer type
with different calling convention from itself, eventually stack frame is
broken and return address goes into wrong place.
if it is the case, there is nothing we can expect from gdb backtrace.
but at least we can inspect esp register ?? for example, type following
x $esp
x $esp-4
x $esp-8
x $esp-c ...
or
x $esp-0x40(or greater than) and just enter until you get value which
seems to be return address.
and you can know what the return address is supposed to be(if it isn't
relocated but it is scarce.)
i hope you can find return address. then you can breakpoint the annoying
procedure.
