Comment (by Tim Graham):

 Could you given an example of what you mean by a broken context processor?
 Do you mean nonexistent?

 On Python 3, with an `context_processors` entry like
 `'django.core.context_processors.debug'` (which I think is the one used to
 reproduce the screenshot), the error gives the full path which is more
 helpful: "No module named 'django.core.context_processors'.

 Maybe a system check to flag nonexistent context processors would be
 helpful.
