Does anyone know what's going on with Linux stack traces?

Program:

import std.file; void main() { readText("nonexisting"); }

On my Kubuntu 12.10 VM, I see this when I compile and run it:

std.file.FileException at std/file.d(214): nonexistent: No such file 
or directory
----------------
crash(void[] std.file.read(const(char[]), uint)+0x50) [0x8082a00]

However, on a Gentoo and an Ubuntu server, I get this:

std.file.FileException at std/file.d(214): nonexisting: No such file 
or directory

For some reason, backtrace_symbols is returning an empty string. 
addr2line has no issue with decoding the addresses, however.

If I copy a binary compiled on one machine to another, its 
behavior is preserved, so it appears to be something in the build 
environment (and not the execution environment). It's not the D 
compiler... does anyone know what might cause this? (gcc / ld 
version?)
