-- Store up to Max_Len code locations in Traceback, corresponding to the
-- current call chain.
--
-- Traceback is an array of addresses where the result will be stored.
--
-- Max_Len is the length of the Traceback array. If the call chain is
-- longer than this, then additional entries are discarded, and the
-- traceback is missing some of the highest level entries.
--
-- Len is the number of addresses returned in the Traceback array
--
-- Exclude_Min/Exclude_Max, if non null, provide a range of addresses
-- to ignore from the computation of the traceback.
--
-- Skip_Frames says how many of the most recent calls should at least
-- be excluded from the result, regardless of the exclusion bounds and
-- starting with this procedure itself: 1 means exclude the frame for
-- this procedure, 2 means 1 + exclude the frame for this procedure's
-- caller, ...
--
-- On return, the Traceback array is filled in, and Len indicates the
-- number of stored entries. The first entry is the most recent call,
-- and the last entry is the highest level call.
