Comment(by Austin_Hastings):

 Without knowing anything about the internals, it seems to me that having
 the pdb-backtrace code check the stack for a key subroutine in the
 interpreter (possibly named "dispatch" or something) and magically
 "turning sideways" to dump the interp stack of that routine would work. It
 would also have the benefit of handling nested runloops.

 Of course, I have no idea how pdb-backtrace would do such a thing...
