The 2 methods 'backtrace' & 'annotations' in PMC Exception are useful
for post-mortem debug.
I think that PMC ParrotInterpreter needs the same methods with the
same interface ie the same output structure.
Many languages have a backtrace in their debug support.
The introspection interface of ParrotInterpreter needs to know annotations
$P0 = getinterp
$P1 = $P0['sub'; level]
$P2 = $P0['annotations', level] # currently not supported
