If you want the low-level stack trace, you can use

 (print (continuation-mark-set->context (current-continuation-marks)))


I don't think errortrace gives you direct access to the context
information that it maintains --- which is better defined than the
low-level stack trace --- but you can raise and immediately catch an
exception:

 (require errortrace)
 (with-handlers ([exn? (lambda (exn) 
                         (print-error-trace (current-output-port) exn))])
   (error "catch me"))
