When something causes a walkback, Squeak generates a file called
SqueakDebug.log.  It contains the full call stack.  You can easily cut
and paste from this.  (Generation of the file is controlled by the
debugging Preference called logDebuggerStackToFile).

There is also a "mail out bug report" menu item in the call stack pane
of the debugger.  In theory that will pull together the call stack and
details of your VM and image, and mail it out using Celeste (most
likely).  I just tried it, and humorously it seems to cause it's own
walkback at the moment (soon to be fixed!).
