Your last form works for me, but the lambda has to accept the same
arguments as sit-for.
(add-function :before (symbol-function 'sit-for)
(lambda (&rest _) (acm-backtrace 5)))
I think advice-add would make more sense for that use case though.
(advice-add 'sit-for :before (lambda (&rest _) (acm-backtrace 5)))
