> There were problems with native stack unwinding using EBP/RBP frame pointer - sometimes it points to incorrect return address.
> Therefore I've disabled EBP/RBP unwinding in the new crash handler implementation committed recently.
> Unfortunately, it appeared that unwinding with only 2nd heuristic approach (return addresses lookup in the stack) works not good also.
> This problems do not appear only on Windows/debug where local stack is erased in debug prolog and does not contain return addresses from previous call branches.
> I experimented a bit, and found a way to solve this problem.
> Suggested patch re-enables EBP/RBP unwinding with additional validation to filter out wrong EBP/RBP values which do not correspond to the current frame.
