Getting a whole backtrace is another problem entirely. I'd just like to 
see the caller's filename and line number used when a function is trying 
to warn you that someone has used it incorrectly.

And yeah... optimized binaries make it difficult for this to work 100% 
while it's an add-on to the language :(
