--  This package provides an interface allowing to control *automatic* output
--  to standard error upon exception occurrences (as opposed to explicit
--  generation of traceback information using GNAT.Traceback).
 
--  This output includes the basic information associated with the exception
--  (name, message) as well as a backtrace of the call chain at the point
--  where the exception occurred. This backtrace is only output if the call
--  chain information is available, depending if the binder switch dedicated
--  to that purpose has been used or not.
 
--  The default backtrace is in the form of absolute code locations which may
--  be converted to corresponding source locations using the addr2line utility
--  or from within GDB. Please refer to GNAT.Traceback for information about
--  what is necessary to be able to exploit this possibility.
 
--  The backtrace output can also be customized by way of a "decorator" which
--  may return any string output in association with a provided call chain.
--  The decorator replaces the default backtrace mentioned above.

   --  Decorator, to get a symbolic traceback. This will cause a significant
   --  cpu and memory overhead.
