How do I use CallStack?

[Evan Laforge]

Also, a call stack frame is just a (name, srcloc) pair, so you can
format it yourself.  I use:

show_stack :: CallStack -> String
show_stack = maybe "<empty-stack>" show_frame . Seq.last . Stack.getCallStack
    where
    show_frame (name, srcloc) =
        SrcLoc.srcLocFile srcloc ++ ":" ++ show (SrcLoc.srcLocStartLine srcloc)
        ++ " [" ++ name ++ "]"

I've been using it since 7.10, with base 4.8.  There's also a back
port to 7.8, but it's not in the official distribution.
