I've a problem with gdb. It does not show the stack frames. It can
tell you what function you are in, but not what function calls are
nested to get where you are.

Here i am three functions deep, but it only shows the current
function. Do i need to turn on some configuration option so that stack
frame GBD understands are be used?

	Thanks
