RE: does your web server do this

I assume what you are objecting to is the presentation of the stack dump,
not the fact that you got an error.

The stack dump, in my opinion at least, gives too much information to a
potential hacker so I'd rather not show it. I believe, but I'm not sure,
that you can tell you server not to send the stack dump back to the user and
I would suggest doing that in a production environment.
