A look into the traceback module shows that tracebacks are stored as a
linked list. Here's a way to get hold of its tail:
def tbiter(tb):
while tb is not None:
yield tb
tb = tb.tb_next
def last(items):
for item in items:
pass
return item
# example usage
def myexcepthook(type, value, tb):
tb_tail = last(tbiter(tb))
print tb_tail.tb_lineno
