No, that's very different from what I'm asking.  What I wanted is
exactly what the pstack program that Neil Brown referenced
provides. The difference is that when you throw an exception, you can
grab a jmp_buf and use that to walk back up the stack which isn't so
hard.  My problem was different in that I want stacktraces at
arbitrary times, and without executing any code on that thread (like
to get a jmp_buf).

I just got back from a trip, so I'm looking forward to checking out
the pstack code later this week. :)
