I'm not aware of any non-DWARF efforts aside from Debug.jl ... Curious to
know what you are proposing, though. I think you could actually get some
good mileage out of instrumenting `jl_apply` (this is basically how I use
gdb most of the time, except I isolate the function call I want to trap
first because `jl_apply` is very hot)
