Description
It would be nice in certain instances (such as a shared host) to be able to 1) see what version of python ran your code and/or (if possible) 2) where that python binary is located. Just a thought as not all error traces show such, though some do. Thank you!

You mean Django's "pretty HTML error page," right? If so, I'm +1 for this. Could you write up a patch?

I've got Django running on a shared host, where python 2.3 is the default (Debian Sarge) and I have to explicitly set it to use 2.4 with a shebang line. Showing the python version would be handy here.
Showing version numbers is generally a bad idea as it provides lots of hackable info, but this is a debug page, and it does show lots of other info.
