When stg fails, and handles it properly, no backtrace should be printed, even when running tests with -v. Getting a backtrace in the output signals some kind of bug, but in this case there is no bug. ---

I was running tests with -v and saw python backtraces, and assumed that there was a bug somewhere. But apparently this backtrace only appeared when running tests.

I think it's better if you only get backtraces when something actually went wrong. The test driver sets the debug level to -1, so I changed the check to check for positive instead.
