I think you have just struck on the right way to write the tests
for fullname with respect to stack frames.  Forget regex's, we
want the value of the fullname to exactly match the same fullname
attribute pumped out by -file-list-exec-source-files.  This would just
take one utility function.  The test for -file-list-exec-source-files
could then be the central point for verifying the "correctness" of
fullname.  I'm willing to redo my stack/fullname tests if this idea
is amenable to the group.
