The best-quality info will be a coredump.
Arranging one is hard as Exim is setuid. I've not tried
on a BSD, but Linux requires some deliberate relaxation of security
restrictions (setuid programs are carrying sensitive info; a
dump file has that info, leaving dump files with such info
lying around is obviously a major risk...)
Compiling with debug flag (eg, for gcc / gdb, "-ggdb")
before getting the dump would be good.
Don't worry about debug versions of libraries.
Then "bt" in gdb will give us a file and line number.
This might be something special about a FreeBSD jail.
