With newer addr2line, -p is helpful because function names
aren't printed without it. In trunk bzr 111564..5 I pushed the
following, to suggest -p if available and to say what to do with
older addr2line implementations.

+ * trouble.texi (Crashing): Suggest -p for recent addrline. (Bug#13445)
+ Without it, I don't see function names. Older addrlines will die
+ out sooner or later, so tailor the suggestion to recent addrline
+ and put in a comment about older ones.
