Weirdness: is print_stack() supposed to work with ubacktrace() data?

Self-answering my second question: yes, but my use of print_ustack is
wrong. The docs do state that its argument should be the backtrace of
the _current_ task. Better to use something like 'ubt[pid(),
ubacktrace()] <<< 1', and filter out the backtraces where "pid ==
target()" later.
