Well, 'core' is a real file, somewhere, and it has to be produced (by allowing configuration) and properly pathed for gdb to open it. The dying process puts it in $PWD/core. Once gdb is up, 'where' will get you down to a subroutine. Of course, you need source and it helps if the compile options and lack of stripping make the crashing object easy to debug. Sometiems fate is cruel, and it only bombs if you compile it without symbols! There is also running it under truss/tusc/strace to get some idea of what calls preceded the crash.

NANA(1) General Commands Manual NANA(1)
NAME
nana - generates debugger commands from C and C++ source code
SYNOPSIS
nana [cpp-flags] files...
DESCRIPTION
Generates gdb(1) commands from the arguments which implement the assertion and logging operations specified by macros such as DI(3) and
DL(3). The output of nana(1) can then be sourced into gdb(1) to perform these operations.
Note that you must provide any C preprocessor flags you are using to nana since these can change the code that is generated by the com-
piler.
SEE ALSO
nana-clg(1), nana(3), I(3), DI(3), L(3), DL(3), Q(3) and nana.info.
The nana.info file is the primary documentation.
