Whilst the stacktraces can be pretty painful at times - esp. if you're
dealing with lazy sequences - they do include filenames and line
numbers, at least when you're outside the REPL. There are also a
number of tools to clean up stack traces to show only Clojure-related
entries and/or color-code them etc (e.g.,
clojure.stacktrace/print-stack-trace which is part of the core Clojure
download).

That said, yes, debugging errors is probably the worst aspect of using
Clojure :)

And +1 on the language/community as best!
