Comment(by cotto):

 I'm tempted to reject this as wontfix.  To add PDB_backtrace to
 Parrot_confess would require access to the interp, and getting that would
 mean modifying everything that uses any variant of PARROT_ASSERT.  There
 are a lot of them.  We also don't want to impose the constraint that an
 interp must be available before a condition can be asserted.  If someone
 has a sane way to do provide a pir-level backtrace on an assertion
 failure, I'm all ears.  If not, I'll reject this.
