[ale] Segfault but no dump.

I'm getting a strange error when I try to examine the core file of a 
crashed app.  Here's the output:

This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux-gnu"...Using host 
libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Reading symbols from shared object read from target memory...done.
Loaded system supplied DSO at 0x24a000
Core was generated by `/usr/local/bin/loggerd -f /etc/VA/logger.conf'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

warning: svr4_current_sos: Can't read pathname for load map: 
Input/output error

Cannot access memory at address 0xb7f79000
#0  0x00000000 in ?? ()

I'm guessing a blown stack, but that's only a guess.  Does anyone have a 
suggestion as to how to go about tracking this one down? 

What's the "Can't read pathname for load map" mean? Is that normal.  I 
didn't generate one, however I'm using -g in the cflags.

Thanks,
Jim.
