I'm pretty hesitant to do this; it penalizes procedure calls.

What first writing a prototype that uses the VM trap interface?  You can
use `trap-calls-in-dynamic-extent'.  The apply-handler will be called
for both tail and non-tail applications.  See `(system vm trace)' for a
use example.  Then you can figure out how to wire its information into
the backtrace at the REPL.

Cheers,

Andy
