/* This function can be used to unwind stack of live ("dying") process, invoked
 * from the core dump hook (/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern).
 *
 * Beware:
 *
 * - It can only unwind one thread of the process, the thread that caused the
 *   terminating signal to be sent. You must supply that thread's tid.
 * - The function calls close() on stdin, meaning that in the core handler you
 *   cannot access the core image after calling this function.
