In my experience, if a crash is reproducible it's generally
straightforward to fix. rr could be useful if a crash is hard to
reproduce or intermittent, but once a developer can reproduce a crash
we're in the endgame. If a debugger doesn't give enough info, running
Valgrind usually does. The hard part is usually figuring out how to
reproduce a crash from just looking at a crash report.

BugHunter[1] attempts to reproduce crashes from crash-stats by loading
the URLs from the crash reports, which is sometimes successful.
