  I am poor graduate student trying to debug ugly fortran code inherited
from the stone ages.  
  After an error, I would like to be able to do a traceback 
before exiting the program.  At the moment, I can't come up with a
better way than exiting through a SUICID routine which displays an error
message and divides by zero.  Unless I do this ugly kluge, the STOP seems
to clean up the stack enough to render the traceback (tb) meaningless.

  There must be a better way, perhaps a system call?

  Thanks.
