How do I debug Litespeed Server on Mac OS 10.5 with GDB? I haven’t a  
clue on how to proceed. I haven’t used GDB before.

Jamis B. had an article about extracting ruby stack traces from a  
gdb session: [Buckblog: GDB wrapper for Ruby](http://weblog.jamisbuck.org/2006/9/25/gdb-wrapper-for-ruby)  
no idea if that still works.
