Another part of our vague debugging plan was to add a cheap form of cost-centre stacks to the byte code interpreter, so that you could always get a backtrace at a breakpoint or an exception. We don't know

I do!  It would look a lot like a cut-down version of the Hat trace
format.

Neat, I'll take a look. Where's the best place to get an overall description of how it works? Does it give you a lexical call stack, or a dynamic call stack? (I'm after the former)

I'm particularly interested in what happens with CAFs, and what the backtrace looks like for higher order functions - these are the parts we have difficulty with in CCSs.

Cheers,
