Recursion depth checker doesn't work in tracer.c

[nedbat]

From a comment on the coverage page:

It seems that the recursion limit statement does not work when executed in coverage 3.0, like in this sample code:

#!python

import sys
sys.setrecursionlimit(2500)
def add1(number = 0):
    number = number + 1
    if(number < 2000):add1(number) 
if __name__ == '__main__': 
    add1()

Thanks.

The problem isn't setrecusionlimit, it's the depth checker in tracer.c: it's off by one (or two).
