Last frame?

[David Nadlinger]

Sorry, I don't quite understand the problem – the exception message 
describes what happened, and the stack trace points to the location. The 
only thing that strikes me as strange here is that file.foo itself isn't 
included in the backtrace, but I'd say that's a bug in the exception 
handling code, not related to File itself. Or did I miss anything?

By the way, this is how the output looks on OS X:

std.exception.ErrnoException at std/stdio.d(286): Cannot open file 
`test.raw' in mode `r' (No such file or directory)
----------------
5   test                                0x000347fa @safe

"std/stdio.d", 286).errnoEnforce(shared(core.stdc.stdio._iobuf)*, lazy 
immutable(char)[]) + 90
6   test                                0x00033443 ref std.stdio.File

8   test                                0x00002b2f void test.bar() + 11
9   test                                0x00002aab _Dmain + 11
10  test                                0x000146bb extern (C) int

11  test                                0x00014265 extern (C) int 
rt.dmain2.main(int, char**).void tryExec(scope void delegate()) + 29
12  test                                0x00014703 extern (C) int 
rt.dmain2.main(int, char**).void runAll() + 59
13  test                                0x00014265 extern (C) int 
rt.dmain2.main(int, char**).void tryExec(scope void delegate()) + 29
14  test                                0x000141ff main + 179
15  test                                0x00002a95 start + 53
----------------

No line numbers, unfortunately, but the whole call stack is present.
