AFAIK that’s just the way errors are reported when they arise from modules that are synthesized at compile time. For instance, this source:

#lang scribble/manual

@(error 'boom)

Produces this error:

error: boom
  context...:
   body of "path/to/foo.scrbl"

FWIW, errortrace can work with Pollen programs. Given:

#lang pollen

Hello ◊(/ 1 0) world

Running racket test.html.pm results in:

/: division by zero
  context...:
   body of (submod "/Users/sorawee/test.html.pm" pollen-module)

But running racket -l errortrace -t test.html.pm results in:

/: division by zero
  errortrace...:
   /Users/sorawee/test.html.pm:3:7: (/ 1 0)
  context...:
   body of (submod "/Users/sorawee/test.html.pm" pollen-module)
