Okay, I don't know lldb very well.  But according to the GDB to LLDB
command map <http://lldb.llvm.org/use/map.html>; it uses the same commands
to move between frames.  So at startup you want to ensure you are in thread
1 (thread select 1).  That should place you in the last frame on the stack
(frame #0).  You just move up the stack using the command 'up' until you
are in frame #7.

Once there you need to dump the contents of 'th' using the command 'p *th'
or 'frame variable -T *th'.  I suspect the value of th->callee is
incorrect.  The next frame on the stack is -

    frame #6: 0x00007fffffffe193

This is different from the rest of the stack addresses.  So I suspect it is
out of bounds.
