This backtrace shows PC values that are not plausible. That indicates that
something went wrong with unwinding from the outermost libc frame there.
Whatever the story on that, the caller code having had 'eu-strip -g' run on
it has nothing to do with it. If you get to the point of a backtrace with
all the PC values correct but you are missing useful symbolic information
for those PCs, then we can help you look into that.
