Access to the call stack would do that for you. Access to the trace facility
would do that too, and possibly the var_id's. It's been suggested before,
RobC said no. See, there's a lot of these so-called oddball suggestions that
have been suggested, and got nowhere. If you do this, how's the RDS
licence treat handing out a modified interpreter or exe with a trace facility in
it?
