Never. I don't even try. I still think this is a good idea. Not for debugging though. For UI (and error logs if your requirements include writing them in the user language), it could simplify all the user-facing-unexpected-error-reporting into an except hook, or a try..except high up in your call stack. It would be a pretty big step towards RAD. But it had to be made optional somehow. Maybe using errno and existing exception messages together with gettext?
