plpython error logs

When using the Fedora Core 4 rpms for plpython, I find that when an
error is raised, the error logger does not report the line number of the
python function where the error was raised which makes debugging the
functions very difficult.

Using the native Windows installer, the line number is reported.

It hardly seems likely that the Windows installer is what makes that
work. Are these two installations the same version of Postgres? The
same version of Python?

I'm sure the installer is not the key. I was thinking more along the
lines of different compile-time options or different default
configuration files. But I can't find anything point the way to what I
am looking for. It isn't even that easy to compare the two--what, for
example, is the equivalent to a spec file on Windows?

They are pretty close to the same versions, currently my Fedora version
is a little newer, but they used to be the same version and it worked
the same.
