Yes, and Stackless bypasses that and makes them per-tasklet.

Wrap all callables that are put into tasklets so when they are first
executed, your code will get executed first, installing the tracefunc.

>>> import stackless
>>> tasklet = stackless.tasklet
>>> def new_call(self, *args, **kwargs):
...     f = self.tempval
...     def new_f(old_f, args, kwargs):
...         print "wrapper.start", args, kwargs
...         old_f(*args, **kwargs)
...         print "wrapper.end"
...     self.tempval = new_f
...     tasklet.setup(self, f, args, kwargs)
...
>>> tasklet.__call__ = new_call
>>>
>>> def test(*args, **kwargs):
...     print "test.enter", args, kwargs
...     stackless.schedule()
...     print "test.exit"
...
>>> tasklet(test)(1,2,3, x=1, y=2, z=3)
>>> stackless.run()
wrapper.start (1, 2, 3) {'y': 2, 'x': 1, 'z': 3}
test.enter (1, 2, 3) {'y': 2, 'x': 1, 'z': 3}
test.exit
wrapper.end
>>>

This is how I would do it anyway.  But I imagine you are going to
be doing it in C++.

Hope this helps,
Richard.
