My experience with dladdr has been that it returns junk at least half of the time. IIRC, Tiger was worse than Leopard, but neither is as accurate as NSTask'ing out to atos (which basically works perfectly, albeit slow as dirt).
I've got an open radar on it.

If you're on Leopard, there is a new backtrace(3) call.
 If you're on Tiger, it's a little more complex...

        You can use the compiler function
                (long)__builtin_return_address(0)
        to find the address of your caller. Alas, there is no
 __builtin_return_symbol()

Interesting. The manpage for backtrace mentions dladdr, which is
available on 10.4. Maybe you can use that instead of launching atos.
Particularly, I'm looking at the dli_sname member.
