I think this would be pretty hard to do.
To make sense of the control stack, I think you need to look at the
return stack. The return stack in Hugs is just the C return stack
and I don't know any way of examining that other than just viewing
the stack in a C debugger.
In the new runtime system, the return stack and the control stack
will be merged into a single stack. This ought to be much simpler
to navigate - though it won't help with the problem of mapping an
STG-level state back to a Haskell-level state.
