To get a formatted one, a la Carp::confess, as a string:

    my $stacktrace = Carp::longmess();

To make Carp::croak behave like Carp::confess:

    perl -MCarp=verbose ...

To make every $SIG{__DIE__} become a Carp::confess:

    perl -MCarp::Always ...

Finally, to get an more useful stacktrace (that you can both format and
inspect programatically), look at Devel::StackTrace.
