I remember going through a lot of pain getting this done "right"
in pg-python[pl/py].

SELECT it_blows_up();
ERROR:  function's "main" raised a Python exception
CONTEXT:  [exception from Python]
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "public.it_blows_up()", line 13, in main
    three()
   File "public.it_blows_up()", line 10, in three
    return two()
   File "public.it_blows_up()", line 7, in two
    return one()
   File "public.it_blows_up()", line 4, in one
    raise OverflowError("there's water everywhere")
 OverflowError: there's water everywhere

[public.it_blows_up()]


IIRC, I unconditionally print the "[public.it_blows_up()]" part iff it's
not an ERROR. If it is an ERROR, I let the traceback rendering part of the code
handle it on the PL's entry point exit. It was really tricky to do this because 
I
was rendering the traceback *after* the error_context_stack had been called.
