Multicore OCaml: September 2021, effect handlers will be in OCaml 5.0!

We’ve gone to some effort to preserve DWARF unwinding correctly in multicore OCaml (see the effects paper for more details). You may also want to check the debugging tips and tricks in the OCaml multicore wiki which has info on how to use gdb and rr. You do get your functions back as mangled names, but it’s pretty easy to visually map those back to their original OCaml function names by inspection.
