I guess I agree that it is very useful for debugging. But maybe
a different mechanism could be used. Instead of sending this to
the general SYSLOG, why not use a signal (default being off).
This would help interested users to catch the exception in the
execution context.

If a user is debugging a problem, he can simply install a signal
handler

Thanks
