montanaro: FIRST, I put the priority on 9 because I finally
added a huge chunk of code to show what I was talking about.
Given this , and since this bug was in the system for so
long, I flagged it to 9, solely so that it would reget some
needed attention, and then  expecting one of the powers that
be to bring it back down to normal.

WELL: not only did you not do this. You closed the bug, AND
you completely did not comprehend what its point is.

Quickly: i show the the STRENGTHS of  the error reporting
mechanism in cgitb, and this bug suggests that some (if not
all) features should be implemented in the normal interpreter.

Most useful is the fact that you get to see values of all
variables on the line causing error.

As you can see, i reflagged this to 9 solely to get your
attention. please bring it back down to 5 when u read this.
