Perhaps you can minimize the change by renaming kdb_reenter to _kdb_reenter() and having 'kdb_reenter()' call '_kdb_reenter(true)' and 'db_error()' call '_kdb_reenter(false)'? In general I don't think other places that call kdb_reenter() should have to think about specifying the 'print_trace' arg. I think it's fine if they just use 'db_error()' or 'kdb_reenter()' depending on the situation.

Ok, Ill look at your suggestions and have an updated diff soon.
