+ * Attempts to generate a stack trace at current code position in
+ * @prog_name. @prog_name is mostly a helper and can be set to NULL.
+ * Nevertheless if set, it has to be the current program name (argv[0]).
+ * This function is not meant to generate stack trace for third-party
+ * programs, and will attach the current process id only.
+ * Internally, this function uses `gdb` or `lldb` if they are available,
+ * or the stacktrace() API on platforms where it is available. It always
+ * fails on Win32.
+ *
+ * The stack trace, once generated, will either be printed to @stream or
+ * returned as a newly allocated string in @trace, if not #NULL.
+ *
+ * In some error cases (e.g. segmentation fault), trying to allocate
+ * more memory will trigger more segmentation faults and therefore loop
+ * our error handling (which is just wrong). Therefore printing to a
+ * file description is an implementation without any memory allocation.
+
+ * Return value: #TRUE if a stack trace could be generated, #FALSE
