A few quick comments,

1) Although mmap is not guaranteed to be async-signal-safe, in
practice it should be as you mentioned previously. However I see that
when using mmap, the implementation uses pthread mutexes. These are
not guaranteed to be async-signal-safe either, but I guess in practice
as long as you don't try to use the same mutex in "normal" code and
the signal handler (in this case, the same state struct), it should be
OK. Is this so?

2) In backtrace_print(), in lieu of a standard (de-facto or otherwise)
for the backtrace format, why not follow gdb? I.e. a format string
like

"#%d 0x%lx in %s at %s:%d\n"

where the first argument is a frame number, otherwise as currently done.
