etc.

Reason: catch_errors() (calling print_args_stub) in print_frame_info() is catching Quit exception, so it's not getting passed up the stack.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use tui. Run a backtrace, ensuring that the page break happens in the middle of printing args.
>Fix:
Patch stack.c not to catch Quit-type exceptions
