Description

The current frame handling code doesn't do this. Although auditing debug info correctness on general could be more involved, I'm marking this bug as "easy" as just handling and testing call frame information shouldn't be much hassle.

Research direction

Start by locating the current frame-handling code and any existing debug-info tests. Check how call frame information metadata is currently produced, then add coverage for the expected metadata and confirm the relevant tests pass. The issue does not name files or define the expected metadata, so clarify those details before starting.
