Yes, if we disregard the FRAME_POINTER part.

True, but I don't get any implication that the same patch applies there.
Do you?

> So isn't FRAME_POINTER used mainly to support STACK_TRACE? However, LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT has already included STACK_TRACE_SUPPORT in its dependency. So why there is a FRAME_POINTER dependency?

FRAME_POINTER is one way but it does not seem to be required
for STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

Do you have any patch suggestions?

thanks.
