The specific issues I've run into so far: * Exception-catching syntax (i.e. ``except Whatever as e`` vs. ``except Whatever, e``). * Unicode literals (u'...'). Those are the show-stoppers (for me -- maybe I'm just missing something?), but I'm actually more worried about the subtle differences between str/unicode and bytes/str... I suspect there'll be many subtle bugs there. Ditto anything using io, really, because the new io library isn't in any way the same as the old one (in a good way :) I'm also just worried about the uglyness of code needed to maintain something like this. Like about all the ImportErrors we'll have to catch once all the stdlib reorg happens...
