12/12   This may sound wierd but is there a way for a program compiled
        with the -g debugging option to examine its own stack frame?
        I once ran a program that, whenever it crashed, did an automatic
        backtrace on itself and dumped it to stderr.
        \_ ~mconst/src/gdbcall will let your program run gdb commands
           (like "backtrace") on itself.  --mconst
        \_ another toy, that helped destroy, the elder race of man.
        \_ You can do this in assembly, catch an exception and simply
           check your stack register and walk all the way up
        \_ How about catching SIGBUS, dumping core and then running gdb
           backtrace on the resulting core file.

        \_ A VC wants to keep as much of the stock for themselves (and give
           as little to employees as possible).  That maximizes their return.

5/19    I'm working for an early stage startup, and they want to grant me
        stock options.  However, they are claiming that I must either pay
        tens of thousands of dollars to purchase the options at the
        current valuation, or have it be taken as personal income when I
        (eventually) try to cash out.  It seems that both of these
        are terrible choices.  Are there any other ways to deal with
