Following the instructions at

core file that I could examine with gdb, but I apparently ran into a gdb bug.
I tried both gdb 9.2-1 and 8.3.1-1. Here are the results with 9.2-1.

Unfortunately, I think dumper doesn't produce anything useful on x86_64. See [1]

Thanks. Sorry I didn't notice that people had asked the same question before.
We should probably fix the documentation:
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/dumper.html
Or maybe we should just remove all mention of dumper from the documentation.
Given that we're trying to move people away from 32-bit Cygwin, I don't think it
makes sense to document a feature that works only on the latter.
