Subject: How to find many stack nesting levels I am

/*-----*//* in Gnu C++, returns how many function incarnations in stack */
int depth() {long j,i; for(i=long(&i+2),j=0;i;i=*((long*)i),j++); return j;}
/*-----*//* in Gnu C++, prints depth() spaces on file F */
void In(FILE*F) {int i=depth(),j; for(j=1;j<i;j++) putc(' ',F);}
/*-----*/
  I have go32 version 1.08, gcc version 2.2.2, gas version 1.38.1, bison
version 1.16, flex version 2.3.7 . If I call 'In(debug_output_file);' at the
start of each line of trace output, the trace output is thereby indented
according to how many function calls deep the program is then. This is useful
in debugging programs that have a lot of functions or recursion.

  P.S. What is the latest release of each part of djgpp? Briefly what bugs are
known in the latest release?, or where can I get a list of those bugs? When
will the next release be out? please.
