Thanks for the reply.  Unfortunately the messages don't include the
program's library, so this approach won't work for us.  Another requirement
(that I didn't mention last time) is that this process needs to be RDF (Real
Damn Fast), so I think that bouncing messages up the stack might take longer
than we can afford.

Anyone know of an MI/C method of seeing system domain programs in the stack?
