About this topic, we stick with Guido's language design and don't want
a PyPy in which a number of frames may be skipped from tracebacks.
Now, if you don't want to change the official PyPy but just play
around for fun, then yes, PyPy is a good choice. You'd have to tweak
the interpreter, around the files interpreter/pyframe.py and
interpreter/pyopcode.py, as well as the bytecode compiler in
interpreter/astcompiler/.
A bientôt,
Armin.
