I'm pretty sure there isn't. I've tried a number of times before to
find it but failed. Fundamentally frame objects don't need to know
about functions. Functions are just one way of wrapping code objects
but sometimes code objects come in modules.

You can use sys._getframe() to get the current frame instead of the
traceback.
