https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8242181 gave us source infos in call stacks on Linux, which is really nice, but it made stack printing more vulnerable. We now require Thread::current, which makes stack printing fail and crash in non-attached threads. Causes truncated or missing stacks in hs-err file resp. crashes if stack printing is used outside error reporting.

I tested the fix manually.

I also am working on a testing facility for cases like these, which I will introduce in a separate RFE (see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8293346).
