My code is allowed to assume support for any feature mandated by POSIX
1003.2-1992 (except for a long list of prohibited functions - but none
of those seem relevant), but is not otherwise allowed to depend upon
OS-specific features. Do you know if any such functions were included in
that version of POSIX?

If not, can you at least identify the OS you're using, and the specific
stack trace functions you're talking about for that OS? I'd like to know
how they work - off-hand, functionality that would be an adequate
substitute for what I'm currently doing seems implausible.
