[issue8087] Unupdated source file in traceback

My point is that when I see an error and modify the source to fix it, then I know that I'll have to reload.  If for some reason I forget to reload, I'll get the wrong line in the traceback and then reload, but I don't think that ever happened to me.
So to me, your warning will only be useful in the case where I modified the source, forgot to reload and got the same error again with a wrong line displayed.  Also note that reloading is not so common; usually you just restart your application and that will give you the right traceback.

Also I'm not sure the warning you proposed is the best way to handle this.
