Summary: new improved trace.py

Initial Comment:
trace.py didn't work for me with Python 2.2a4+,
possibly due to me misunderstanding how to use it.
In any case this version is substantially rewritten,
uses the debugger hooks that were introduced in Python
2.1(?), and has a simpler (in my opinion) interface.

Also there are some new features like "countfuncs" mode
which is faster than "count" mode and reports only a
list of funcs that were invoked.

Skip, what do you think of this?

In addition, I think there needs to e a doc string
explaining what the --count and --report options do, and how
the --file option figures.
I am completely unable to understand how these interoperate.
:-(
