  The methods of the syntax-tree objects that convert to tuples/lists
accept a parameter that tells it to include an additional item that
gives the line number.  So you could do:

    import parser
    import pprint

    st = parser.suite(open("module.py").read())
    pprint.pprint(st.totuple(1))

  The last item in each tuple that represents a concrete token gives
the line number for that token (for multi-line tokens, it gives the
line the token *ends* on).  It's a pretty pathetic interface, but the
information is there.
