What platform are you on? You are supposed to get backtraces:
julia> function myfunc(x)
y = sum(x)
y2 = othersum(x)
println(y)
end
myfunc (generic function with 1 method)
julia> myfunc(1:10)
ERROR: othersum not defined
in rec_backtrace at /home/tim/src/julia/usr/bin/../lib/libjulia.so
in jl_throw at /home/tim/src/julia/usr/bin/../lib/libjulia.so
in jl_undefined_var_error at /home/tim/src/julia/usr/bin/../lib/libjulia.so
in myfunc at none:3
in jl_apply_generic at /home/tim/src/julia/usr/bin/../lib/libjulia.so
in jl_f_top_eval at /home/tim/src/julia/usr/bin/../lib/libjulia.so
That said, if this example works for you but you don't get backtraces in some
specific circumstances, if you can come up with a good test case please file an
issue: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues
