For even simpler backtraces for the most common use case, I've 
implemented glibc's backtrace() function for Windows at 
https://github.com/ned14/boost-lite/blob/master/src/execinfo_win64.c. 
Identical API, almost identical output.

BTW Antony if you have need for very fast backtracing of non-callee 
(i.e. other thread) stacks using the undocumented NT kernel functions 
which are two orders of magnitude faster than those in DbgHelp, ping 
me privately.
