Long ago, I saw a C program that took another C program as input.  It would
output a copy of the original C program, interspersed with fprintf's that
would display the text of the line current being executed.

You might write something similar for Python, perhaps outputting the line
being executed and/or the line number.  You could have it open a file in
/tmp or something.
