Since an OOME is a Throwable, any stack trace that is available will be
dumped to standard output. Often, there is no stack trace available, so
you don't get one.

True. On the other hand, you /can/ get a heap dump if you're using Sun's
Java 1.6.x using this JVM option:

- -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
