>>Just execute as
>>R -d gdb

The problem is that the segmentation faults do not happen in any reliable way,
and usually they occur in batch scripts I use for testing. I was wondering if
there is anyway, after they occur, to recover useful information from the core
file that is generated?

>>>In order for this to be as useful as possible you should do it before
>>>        make install
>>>so that gdb can find the source files and display them for you.

I'm confused. What do I do before make install?
