Boost Test Framework: Any way to get a backtrace on SIGSEV? [duplicate]

Just starting out with boost test framework. Using Ubuntu + gcc (running on Windows through the new thing if that matters). When I run my tests, I get this:



unknown location(0): fatal error: in "PhraseListTest/everythingEqual8": signal: SIGSEGV, si_code: 0 (memory access violation at address: 0x00000080)
/mnt/c/projects/matching/matching-native/src/test/cpp/phrase_list_test.cpp(70): last checkpoint

*** 1 failure is detected in the test module "burningmime_matching_tests"


How would I go about finding where in my code that happened? The only indication that message gives points to a line in the test. The line in question is just:



BOOST_CHECK(matches(phraseList, bitset));


I'm fairly certain the problem is occurring somewhere inside the matches() function (probably many levels deep), but... where?



Another answer suggested I link with -lSegFault, but that didn't do anything (presumably because Boost's test execution engine is overriding the signal handler). I'm not doing anything fancy regarding the build steps (just doing -g -O0 -fPIC -march=native -lboost_unit_test_framework).



This one has been tricky to track down through printf() debugging, because it only happens occasionally and might have to do with some alignment issues. Any help in getting a nicely formatted stack trace (like one would get from Java/Python/C#) would be greatly appreciated.



I'm not married to boost test (this is a personal project), so if there's another testing framework that would work better, I'm more than willing to switch.



This is not a duplicate of any of the linked questions because boost test framework will override any signal handlers with its own signal handlers. Those answers are all about adding things which will conflict with the boost test stuff.
