At the moment there's no such thing for this in CHICKEN. We do have an
instrumentation for profiling in place though so you might hack this
to get the code path out of the runtime. Alternatively you might print
the call trace (which is not a call stack!) after each run. Depending
on how the code is written there may be information missing (tight
loops scrolling out interesting information for example).

YMMV
