This is version 0.2 of the unwind library. At the moment, only the
IA-64 Linux (IPF Linux) platform is supported and even that support
has received only light testing. Consequently, this release is
intended primarily to expose the unwind API to more developers and to

There is virtually no documentation at the moment. A brief outline of
the unwind API is in file NOTES. To get a feel for how things are
intended to work, you may also want to take a look at include/unwind.h
and include/unwind-ia64.h. Finally, the test program in
src/tests/bt.c shows two ways of how to do a simple backtrace: one
uses libunwind directly, the other uses a libunwind-based

The following steps should be used to compile and install this library:
$ cd src
$ make dep
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install prefix=PREFIX
where PREFIX is the installation prefix. By default, a prefix of /usr
is used, such that libunwind.a is installed in /usr/lib and unwind.h
is installed in /usr/include. For testing, you may want to use a
prefix of /usr/local instead.
