Back when I had a PPC mac, all this worked fine. Same compiler settings on an Intel mac and:

1. In shark, I only get the last symbols, all other symbols down the stack are either "unreachable" or "unknown", for example:

actual_function_name
...unknown
......unreachable

Every once and a while, even the top symbols are missing (same compiled code!)

2. In crash reporter, even the thread it crashed in is listed as "unknown", and there's never a stack trace that makes any sense or includes any of my symbols.

I've tried a number of settings, and I'm obviously getting some symbols, but it seems what I'm missing is something in the stack. There's no stripping, I've tried default, full, etc for debug symbols. This one is driving me crazy -- it's very hard to fix bugs for my users and shark is next to useless for me (and it was very useful earlier.)

(XCode 3.1, x86, 10.5.5, but it has been broken for me long before that system update)

This sounds like you are building with -fomit-frame-pointer. It only applies to Intel and makes it near impossible to backtrace through the stack.
