The C files are generated from VMMaker and the line numbers change a
lot.�� If you look upwards in the C file you should see a generated
comment that links to the Smalltalk source it was generated from.

I recently learnt a bit of using gdb on the image.�� I'm planning to
write up something but its a few weeks off.�� The old post How to debug
the VM? [1] by Mariano needs a bit of adaption, but got me off to a
good start.�� If you look in VMMaker package where�� #printAllStacks�� is
defined you'll see some others you can call, that just print the
current Smalltalk call stack.

You might also try compiling the VM from upstream sources[2], running either:
* vm/build.linux32x86/squeak.cog.spur/build.debug/mvm
* vm/build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur/build.debug/mvm

Did you try the early 64-bit Pharo Image [3] suggested by Esteban in
another thread ?

Also, you might try Squeak 64-bit Image, since its the platform Eliot
develops the VM on, so it is further advanced in 64-bit stability.

Run vm/image/buildspurtrunk64image.sh.

[3] http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo-64.zip

Now since you are getting down and dirty debugging this at VM level,
probably good to shift this thread to [vm-dev].
