Ah, so it is corefile debugging. Checking on my end, I don't see the permissions column either. Now it escapes me if we have any
special reason for that or if it is just an oversight somewhere. As for the stack marker, I suppose we lose that reference
when the corefile is generated. That reference comes from /proc/<pid>/maps when we do "info proc mapping".
