Re:On libunwind and dynamically generated code on x86-64 by simscitizen on Tuesday April 12, 2016 @02:34AM (#11477628)
Luckily Apple is sane enough to compile its core libraries with frame pointers, so unwinding is pretty trivial. See for yourself (this function is called by backtrace(3)): http://opensource.apple.com//source/Libc/Libc-825.40.1/gen/t...

On the Windows side, Vista was the first client release to begin reincluding frame pointers, having omitted them since (at least) NT 3.51.
