From 48dcd0ba84c5a0fa08a0bd000b24af07d20dce44 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ulrich Drepper Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2009 16:17:09 -0700 Subject: Preserve message printed before abort. The terminal output etc is not visible in a core file. The new libc-internal variable __abort_msg will point to a string with the message which has been printed before the abort in case abort is called from inside libc.
