Stack traces are inserted into the exception object at the point of throw 
using "SetExceptionStackTrace" in "cvm_except.c".  This function calls 
"_IL_StackFrame_GetExceptionStackTrace" to get the stack details.  At this 
point, the information is recorded, but not printed.

This prints the stack trace for exceptions that are uncaught when the program 
exits.  It will attempt to use "obj.ToString()" to dump the stack trace.  
Sometimes this will fail because "ToString()" itself throws an exception.  In 
that case, a last-ditch attempt is made to display the source of the 
exception using C code.
