Assuming you didn't, the patch below should print all(*) stackframes
for all architectures.

(*) Stack frames below 100 bytes are ignored, by virtue of
		next if ($size < 100);
    This is imo preferrable as it is architecture-independent and easier
    to spot.  The fact that noone noticed the 300 byte effect for five
    years (or thereabout) speaks volumes.

The regex for s390 - and several other architectures that copied from
s390 - silently ignored stack frames below 300 and above 10000 bytes.
