Pandas is actually not implemented in C (or just a bit of that) but in Cython. That is why you get tracebacks that include line numbers from extension modules at all. C implemented extensions do not normally provide this. The reason why the source code lines are not displayed is probably just that Pandas does not ship its source code but only the compiled modules. Remember that the reason why you get Python source code lines in tracebacks is that the Python code file is sitting right there in the installed package. If Pandas did the same thing, you'd probably also get code lines printed in tracebacks.
