Not that I know of. Should fit fine in Function.pmod if you care to implement it.

Is there any utility function in Pike that does the following, or an approximate?

void call_callback(function f,mixed ... args) { mixed err; err=catch { f(@args); return; }; werror(master()->describe_backtrace(err)); }

...preferably with typechecking.

I find that I would like to put a wrapper around my callbacks a lot of the time, to be certain that the code following still is run even if the user (of my library-ish routines) makes an error.

You should probably use master()->handle_error() instead:

void call_callback(function f,mixed ... args) { mixed err; err=catch { f(@args); return; }; if (err) master()->handle_error(err); }
