Hello Jennifer,

I am about to go on vacation so I can only give some short comments.

This patch looks a bit like approach of the Timeline Tool from Edisoft:

I am more in favor of linker based versions like:

This is describes the Linux approach:

No matter what we use in the end, I think its important that it can be disabled at compile-time (like profiling, debug, etc.).

Fatal errors should result in _Terminate(). You can add a single trace point to this function.
