Oprofile can use it, I though it was already used but apparently only
to backtrace userspace actually.

Hi Pilippe

Last time I tried oprofile with call graph on my opteron machine (linux-2.6.13 SMP), the machine crashed instantly in dump_backtrace()

Apparently the user program was in a state were 'struct frame_head * head' was not part of the user thread stack, but some strange value like 0x8000000000xxyyzz
