 |    --    Traceback is the address of 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 returned actual number of addresses stored | 
 |    --    in the Traceback array. |

 |    --    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. |
