Most commonly (in my experience, at least) fatal stack overflow errors are
caused by a problem experienced while trying to report an error, which triggers
another error that also cannot be reported, etc...

If that is the case, then the diagnostically interesting bit of the stack trace
will be at the other end of the stack, where something has first gone wrong.
Come to that, the stuff near the bottom of the stack, just before/as it enters
the recursion, are usually most useful for /any/ recursion overflows.
