gdb is useless in this respect, since when the server respawns itself for
mapchange, it confuses the debugger.

Run:

  ulimit -c unlimited

Run the server. If it crashes, it'll leave a core.* file in the directory.

THEN, run "gdb ./bf1942_lnxded core.*"  (".*" being whatever the corefile
is actually called)

When gdb loads, enter "bt" to get a backtrace.
