The corresponding library (binutils) that parses DWARF debug information and extracts line numbers in licensed under the GNU GPL, meaning that loading it dynamically and passing around data structures is out of the question (see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#NFUseGPLPlugins). However, the D distribution can include a small GPL-licensed program that can take an exception stack trace as stdin, and convert it to include line number information, similar to the addr2line utility.

Would something like this work? http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/elftoolchain/

It's being developed for FreeBSD, so it's likely to work there and on Linux. I
don't know of the progress, but it seems to be slated for the FreeBSD 10
release:
