Function call arguments in stack trace?

Neil, thanks for the tip; `pdb` is indeed a great debugging tool.

Still, it doesn't obviate the need for arguments in the stack trace.
For example:

1) Arguments in stack trace can expedite a debugging session, and even
obviate it completely: "Why did `foo()` fail?  Oh, because it got `-1`
as its first argument, while I only coded for positive integers!".
2) In some environments, it's very hard to recreate a rare exception
and analyze it with `pdb`. For instance, on a web application that
emails the stack traces of unhandled exceptions, it's very important
for that stack trace to be as informative as possible, since often
that's the only debugging feedback you will get.

Hope that makes sense, D.
