As of around 15:40 UTC on 2021-06-14, symbol files containing a new kind of compact unwinding information were uploaded to the Mozilla symbol server. These are for system files on macOS. They should improve the quality of macOS crash reports. But there may be side effects. And macOS crash reports may still sometimes be of insufficient quality. This bug is for keeping track of these problems. I generated these symbol files by manual scraping. So far I've only done this for the latest builds of macOS 11 (11.4, build 20F71), 10.15.7 (build 19H1217) and 10.14.6 (build 18G9216). I used the latest version of [Mozilla's Rust-based `dump_syms`](https://github.com/mozilla/dump_syms), but only after one of its dependencies, [Sentry's Symbolic](https://github.com/getsentry/symbolic) had been updated to [add support for Apple's new "compact unwinding" information](https://github.com/getsentry/symbolic/issues/368).
