Comment:

 Here's a saner way of handling things. It's POSIX compliant, so it should
 work in OSX too (I've only tested this on Linux):
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/chiiph/vidalia.git/commitdiff/75d7d200f799919ce144d7618ab646377dbd433a

 Since breakpad on linux is build statically, the idea is to specify the
 include dir the same as before, but specify the actual lib with
 -DBREAKPAD_LIBRARY=/path/to/lib.a, I wasn't able to make the find method
 work, and for what I read with static libs it doesn't work (the general
 find_library method in cmake), but I might be wrong.

 Regarding Socorro, or whatever medium to upload: May be it's simpler if we
 just change the message displayed to say something like: "Vidalia has just
 crashed blablabla. If you think this is a problem with Vidalia, you should
 fill a ticket at trac.torproject.org attaching the 192830123.dmp and
 192830123.dmp.info files located at /path/to/crash/dir". And in the mean
 time we inform users of where we are handling problems in general (not
 everybody knows about this trac). Something like Socorro seems way too
 much for the moment.
