Can we then revert that patch? I'm running out of time for my project 
and I needed already 2 days to track the problem down to that patch.
I tried reverting only that patch but it fails. Reverting backtrace.h to 
the previous revision (115069) doesn't work as well. My application 
doesn't even start (with the patch it dies when trying to load the lib 
in question)
