Traceback not going all the way to the exception?

Could be you are re-raising an exception by hand instead of with the
bare 'raise' statement.  Notice the difference in tracebacks shown
here:

>>> def f():
...     try:
...             g()
...     except Exception, e:
...             raise e
...
>>> def g():
...     raise Exception("abc")
...
>>> f()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 5, in f
Exception: abc
>>> def f():
...     try:
...             g()
...     except Exception, e:
...             raise
...
>>> f()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 3, in f
  File "<stdin>", line 2, in g
Exception: abc
>>>
