super quick asterisk in gdb howto:

compile asterisk with DONT_OPTIMIZE (in make menuconfig -> Compiler flags)
gdb asterisk
run -cvvvvvvvvvv
wait for the crash
bt
bt full

and now make the patch :)

If using Asterisk from a package, be sure to install debug symbols. e.g.
package asterisk-dbg or asterisk-debuginfo .

or, grab a core file, and:

  gdb -c core.file /usr/sbin/asterisk
