+# This is cloned from
+# https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/master/Modules/
+# The module is already included in CMake since 3.0. Until we
+# require CMake 3.0 this module works as a backport.
+
+# Find provider for backtrace(3).
+#
+# Checks if OS supports backtrace(3) via either libc or custom library.
+# This module defines the following variables:
+#
+# ``Backtrace_HEADER``
+#   The header file needed for backtrace(3). Cached.
+#   Could be forcibly set by user.
+# ``Backtrace_INCLUDE_DIRS``
+#   The include directories needed to use backtrace(3) header.
+# ``Backtrace_LIBRARIES``
+#   The libraries (linker flags) needed to use backtrace(3), if any.
+# ``Backtrace_FOUND``
+#   Is set if and only if backtrace(3) support detected.
+#
+# The following cache variables are also available to set or use:
+#
+# ``Backtrace_LIBRARY``
+#   The external library providing backtrace, if any.
+# ``Backtrace_INCLUDE_DIR``
+#   The directory holding the backtrace(3) header.
+#
+# Typical usage is to generate of header file using configure_file() with the
+# contents like the following::
+#
+#  #cmakedefine01 Backtrace_FOUND
+#  #if Backtrace_FOUND
+#  # include <${Backtrace_HEADER}>
+#  #endif
+#
+# And then reference that generated header file in actual source.
