For some reason the readme lists a "local process" example as if it were supported. We can see its not by copying the example code into a rust program's main and executing.
The minidump will fail with failed to write minidump: DumperError(SuspendNoThreadsLeft(1)) and if we look at the dumping code we can see it depends on ptrace-ing. Since ptrace hasnt supported self attachment since 2005 its unlikely this particular dumping code ever worked, maybe there used to be a local dumper that was removed but without removing the readme component.
