in eval.c:

#define TRACE_MAX (TRACE_HEAD+TRACE_TAIL+5)
#define TRACE_HEAD 8
#define TRACE_TAIL 5

So you could change those constants. But easier, wrap your code in something
like this:

  begin
    ... do your code
  rescue Exception => e
    puts "#{e} (#{e.class})\n#{e.backtrace.join("\n")}"
  end
