In order to test post-mortem debugging on SmartOS, simply build a node binary with the default build options and run the following tests: test/pummel/test-postmortem-details.js, test/pummel/test-postmortem-findjsobjects.js, test/pummel/test-postmortem-jsstack.js. All these tests must exit with a 0 exit code.
