Yes.

Nope, not with gdb.

Pretty unlikely you are running a binary different from the binary
you have in front of you. :-)

Nope. The only way that worked was to hand code the symbol offset,
which nobody had ever done.
I did find this: backtrace_symbols(), which is gcc only. It adds a bit
of decoding, assuming no stripping and some special LDFLAGS, but hardly
better.
So I wanted to see what backtrace() did with a seccomp fault, but now
I see that even though I have seccomp in my kernel, and compiled in, that
I can not trigger a seccomp fault, even if I remove syscalls that I
know ntpd uses...
