Your program could use sys.excepthook to generate a custom stack trace
for unhandled exceptions.  All the stack frames are available from the
traceback, but extracting the arguments would be tricky, and getting
the original arguments would be impossible if they've been reassigned
prior to the exception being raised.  It would be simpler just to dump
all the locals in the frame.
