Another totally (or is it just mostly?) useless bug report with no address
to symbol translation. Has anyone considered setting up an autoresponder
that perhaps scans messages for
"EIP:[:space:]+[0-9]+:\[<[0-9]"
and if it doesn't find
"Using .* to map addresses to symbols"
in the remainder of the body fires off a message to the original sender
about how you have to run that through ksymoops using the appropriate
System.map for it to be at all useful? It seems like the sort of thing
that could be done relatively easily in procmail.
