Are you using the latest stable version (0.99)? If so, could you try --enable-debug-frame?

That worked. Thanks! Does that mean you always need to use --enable-debug-frame on ARM?

Dan's checkin comment indicates yes. If you want to send a patch that enables it by default on ARM, I'm happy to apply it.

Didn't want to enable it by default on x86 because it results in calls to malloc, which complicates the use of libunwind in heap profilers.

    Add initial ARM and MIPS support.  To support this, also enable the

    reading of .debug_frame sections (used in lieu of .eh_frame sections

    when they're not available).
