Nope, read on.

I don't know how to enable this for the auto* stuff, but for the
traditional makefiles the target is 'make debug' instead of 'make all'.

I mean extra gdb output from a debugging enabled blender. Lines like #1
... #2 ... below the #0 and so on. Also pointers like 0x40b17265 would
be readable if radeon_dri.so was compiled with debugging on. That would
also help. Can you do this ?

RFC style quoting.
