----------------------------------------
It seems that Ruby's current `addr2line.c` has trouble with the DWARF 5 debugging format (Bug #17585).

I propose that there be an option to use the libbacktrace library instead of `addr2line.c`.

A patch is attached for that. When using libbacktrace, the C level backtrace information looks as follows:
