- use hardware registers. Therefore it is #if 0'd out. Effect on
- performance is some, for backtraces of functions with a few
- arguments each. For functions with many arguments, the stack
- frames don't fit in the cache blocks, which makes the cache less
- helpful. Disabling the cache is a big performance win for fetching
