"""This module installs a wrapper around sys.excepthook which allows multiple
new exception handlers to be registered.
Optionally, the wrapper also stops exceptions from causing long-term storage
of local stack frames. This has two major effects:
- Unhandled exceptions will no longer cause memory leaks
(If an exception occurs while a lot of data is present on the stack,
such as when loading large files, the data would ordinarily be kept
until the next exception occurs. We would rather release this memory
as soon as possible.)
- Some debuggers may have a hard time handling uncaught exceptions
The module also provides a callback mechanism allowing others to respond
to exceptions.
