+        Make sure you arn't using "-fomit-frame-pointer" when
+        compiling libtorrent and rtorrent, this is known to produce
+        bad code for C++ exception handling. If this doesn't help, run
+        the client in gdb and use "bt -20" to get a backtrace. Send
+        this with a bug report.
