Anaconda should be rewritten in a compiled language!

That's exactly what it does:

    def runDebug(self, (ty, value, tb)):
        """This method is called when the "Debug" button is clicked.  It may
           be overridden by a subclass if specialized behavior is required to
           enter debug mode.
        """
        import pdb
        pdb.post_mortem(tb)
        os.kill(os.getpid(), signal.SIGKILL)
