Have you considered building with LWLOCK_STATS defined, and LOCK_DEBUG
defined? That might do it.
Otherwise, I suggest dereferencing the "l" argument to
LWLockAcquireWithVar() or something -- set the frame to "3" in your
example backtrace, using "f 3". Then, "p *l". You'll get the tranche
id there, and so on.
