/*
 * Getting a back trace of a running process is tricky and highly platform
 * dependent.  Our current approach is as follows:
 * 1. If the system library supports the "backtrace()" function, use it.
 * 2. Otherwise, if the compiler is gcc and the architecture is x86_64 or IA64,
 *    then use gcc's (hidden) Unwind_Backtrace() function.  Note that this
 *    function doesn't work for C programs on many other architectures.
 * 3. Otherwise, if the architecture x86 or x86_64, try to unwind the stack
 *    frame following frame pointers.  This assumes the executable binary
 *    compiled with frame pointers; this is not always true for x86_64 (rather,
 *    compiler optimizations often disable frame pointers).  The validation
 *    checks in getnextframeptr() hopefully rejects bogus values stored in
 *    the RBP register in such a case.  If the backtrace function itself crashes
 *    due to this problem, the whole package should be rebuilt with
 *    --disable-backtrace.
