Dear Gabor,

some time back Markus added the capability to retain stack traces through easy_mp execution. These were reverted which now means that by default the stack traces are lost :(

I don't have a clear understanding what the exact design of the newly built scheduling/stacktrace system is, perhaps you could explain this since we’re in the dark here.

We are however pretty certain that the corner cases that lead to you modifying the code do not apply to us with DIALS or xia2.
Could you please advise how we can now enable the stacktrace to be preserved globally, in all cases, and for all dials.*/xia2.* programs?

Just today this has come up twice, and is a support issue for us, see e.g. https://github.com/dials/dials/issues/139 where we are simply flying blind.

Thanks in advance and best wishes, Graeme & xia2 / DIALS team
