Take a look at my IPython project: http://www-hep.colorado.edu/~fperez/ipython

It gives you a ready to embed interpreter. You can simply go as follows:

... your code...
IPython.embed() -> code stops and opens an interpreter which sees the state 
of your code. You can see variables, print, etc. All your vars and functions 
are available. When done, hit Ctrl-D as usual to terminate.
... your code continues.

You could put the embed() calls in an 

if DEBUG:

and globally turn them on/off easily.
