i'm hopefully missing the way in which BitC features make up for not
being able to walk the stack for my logging messages. e.g. if there's
a way for the compiler to insert the debug stack strings fine.

(because i need to get this stuff fixed and shipped yesterday, and the
easiest way to figure out why Somebody Else's Code is breaking is to
just log the hell out of it sometimes. especially if it is a big
service, i can't just have breakpoints and stop things and peek
around, things will time out, etc.

i should think any real systems language would have to have *very*
strong alternatives / answers when regular programmers walk up and
say, "so how do i log the call stack?" because that is what we do
pragmatically to get things done.

like, that should be in the faq with full code snippets.)
