<<I have been seeing a lot of e-mails regarding tracebacks.  Correct me
if I am wrong but doesn't the DOS version of GNAT provide tracebacks?
If so then, how hard would it be to incorporate this software into other
releases?

Nope, the DOS version does not provide tracebacks. As I have mentioned
before, it is possible to always run under GDB, and to do it in a pretty
transparent manner. What the DOS version provides is some scripts to
make this process pretty transparent (obviously pretty successful, since
Chris thinks the DOS version *does* have tracebacks), and yes, this
approach can be used on any release.
