What's the caller() function supposed to do? If it's displaying the
calling function name, there's no way of doing this now without slowing
down execution time for all function calls.

We're not getting into this now. It's a major concept change and should be
discussed (I'm generally against it, definitely when talking about
primitive types - perhaps with the future OO support).
