Detailed Description

Encapsulate string representation of stack trace.

Some platform-specific areas of this code have been adapted from examples found elsewhere. Specifically,

the GLIBC stack generation uses the documented "backtrace" API and is adapted from examples shown in relevant documentation and repeated elsewhere, e.g., http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/gnu/glibc/html_chapter/libc_33.html
the Solaris stack generation is adapted from a 1995 post on comp.unix.solaris by Bart Smaalders, http://groups.google.com/group/comp.unix.solaris/browse_thread/thread/8b9f3de8be288f1c/31550f93a48231d5?lnk=gst&q=how+to+get+stack+trace+on+solaris+group:comp.unix.solaris#31550f93a48231d5
VxWorks kernel-mode stack tracing is adapted from a code example in the VxWorks FAQ at http://www.xs4all.nl/~borkhuis/vxworks/vxw_pt5.html although the undocumented functions it uses are also mentioned in various documents available on the WindRiver support website.

If you add support for a new platform, please add a bullet to the above list with durable references to the origins of your code.
