python.org/sf/1515343 fixes a regression against 2.4, which masks exceptions, and should therefore go in before release. The tracker has a patch to the test cases, and two alternative fixes. (One minimal, the other less ugly.)
Since this only affects string exceptions with a value, it might be acceptable to just say "won't ever fix", but then it should be added to the upgrade news. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
