Good point, Nick. There are times when you'd want to know how you got to a
certain point in code, irrespective of whether any exception occurred. So your
suggestion makes sense, and I'll try and see if I can get it into 3.2.

Another benefit of this is that a user only gets this if they want it; if I were
to use the allframes flag in logging, then everyone would get the print_stack()
even if they didn't want it.
