Of course, after sending this, I remembered that Roland told me how,
by setting multiple breakpoints and having the breakpoint in the outer
frame set a convenience variable.
I never remember this when actually debugging, though. And, I think
convenience functions will have other uses. So, please consider the
patch even though my example was a bad one.
