At this point, no unfortunately. This could be a memcpy() on a NULL
pointer or a use after free for example.

I doubt you'll see much more using strace. You'd rather attach gdb to
it and let it run. This way when it crashes again you can issue "bt full"
and see the whole trace.

It is even possible to force a core to be dumped from gdb for later
inspection using "generate-core-file". Some people also know how to script
it so that it automatically dumps and detaches upon crash, and limits the
service interruption time, but I never remember how to do this, and the
help embedded in it is next to inexistent :-/

Willy
