Those are only available for sys.setprofile though, not sys.settrace.  
IronPython does have clr.EnableProfiler and clr.GetProfilerData() which I 
think gives you similar data (but is less flexible in that you don't get the 
callbacks).  If someone wanted to implement this they could look at how those
are implemented and probably do something pretty similar but w/ 
a callback.
