I will add, that you could potentially trace the error back to the calling routine using the stack and bank register and by using the Memory Peeker control panel.  Then if you knew how the Memory Manager worked to store programs in memory using handles, you could potentially find out what program is in memory where the calling routine is.

An amazing feat at best.
