What Mark and Scott said.
Just a comment about documentation. The dictionary says clearly, though it was not findable by me until I knew what property to look for:
A common use of the executionContexts is to obtain the name of the object and handler that called the current handler, this information is available as: line -2 of the executionContexts.

You might try the executionContexts property (may still be undocumented).
Use this after executing something: put the executionContexts
Shows the objects that handled messages
