Hi,

I did some updates in this function, we don't need anymore
to skip further the first caller now. So I think it's worth
the simplification to lower the overhead in the tracing fast
path.

I took Paul updates for PowerPc and I did the changes on x86.
But I'm clearly useless about the sparc part, I'm still confused
about these window things. So all I did in this arch is to
wrap the older API with the new one, always passing the skip to 1.
I suspect David can be more useful than me to do a real change there :)

Tell me what you think,

Thanks.
