Cool!

Some information here:
http://lkcd.sourceforge.net/doc/linuxworld2000/LKCD.html

There may be some more hanging around somewhere - I suspect that's the paper I 
remembered reading...

Of course, for non-Linux guests these tools won't necessarily be much (any?) 
use, so ELF format core files might prove more generally useful (I don't know 
if the LKCD lcrash tool can support ELF dump files - it'd be real nice if it 
did).

Cheers,
Mark
