(BACKTRACE_LIMIT_MAX): New macro. (w32_backtrace): New function. (emacs_abort): Use w32_backtrace when the user chooses not to attach a debugger. Update the text of the abort dialog. Currently you cannot control where it is written. As for how to use it, if you have MinGW installed you can use addr2line: addr2line -e /path/to/emacs.exe < emacs_backtrace.txt Juanma
