Perhaps:

        provide some way to provide the dSYM files as a download;

        if possible, find something to symbolicate the crash dumps, using the build that crashed and the dSYM files for 
them, so we can turn a less-helpful unsymbolicated crash dump into a much-more-helpful symbolicated crash dump, showing 
line numbers.
