Note that you see some "value optimized out" in the backtrace.  That is because those frames are inside libraries that we did not compile, but did link to.  Whoever compiled those did so with optimization enabled.  It is typical to have two versions of libraries, one of which is used for debugging like we want to do.  By default the non-debugging libraries are linked in, and if needed the user can link in the debugging libraries by overriding the -L options to gcc and/or setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.  But I don't know where the debugging libraries live or if they exist.
