I assume your program was compiled with -g, right ?

Could you do the same experiment directly with gdb:
   gdb <exec> -core core
   (gdb) bt

and send us the backtrace. Maybe there is something that gvd has some problems
parsing, that would be nice to fix.
You might want to send this to me in private, since most people on this list
are probably not directly interested and we should keep the noise low.
