RFD: Unwind_Backtrace for ARM EABI


This is one of the last pieces in the jigsaw for gcj on ARM.

Unwind_Backtrace is not defined in the ARM exception handling spec at
http://www.arm.com/pdfs/ehabi.pdf, but it can be implemented by
performing Phase 1 of a forced unwind, calling the trace function as
we go.  This works for gcj, which uses backtraces quite heavily, and
as far as I can see it'd work everywhere else too.

Daniel Jacobowitz suggested that we probably don't want to call the
personality routine during backtraces, but I can't see that it does
any real harm and not to do so would seriously complicate things.  It
would certainly be nice to have full interoperability for backtraces,
but in my opinion that's not really essential at the present time.

Comments?

Andrew.
