[Chicken-hackers] debugging chicken itself

[Brandon J. Van Every]

Is there a way to trace Chicken's execution of Scheme code?  I'd like to 
see the Scheme code actually executing, even if it is slow.  I'm trying 
to figure out if I can improve Chicken's generation of C code for 32-bit 
floating point math functions.  I find that the sources really don't 
make any sense to me.  If I could see them working, then maybe I'd have 
an idea what's going on, what the flow of control is.

Failing that, anyone recommend other ways to visualize the code?  In the 
MSVC universe there are typically class browsers, so you can see what 
code belongs to what.  I suppose a call graph generator would be 
helpful; this is typical of profiling tools.
