Following the instructions at https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html, I tried to create a 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] et seq.

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.
