Éric Araujo added the comment: New features can only go into 3.2, so you have to test with an updated checkout of the Subversion branch named py3k. See the link I have in a previous message. (P.S. Would you be so kind as to edit quoted text out of your replies? It’s unnecessary noise. Than

Rob Cliffe added the comment: I would not be at all surprised if my patch could be simplified (in fact I'd be surprised if it couldn't). However, I did try out your version on Python 2.5 specifically, and it did not work for me. Trying it out on help(Exception), the relevant members of object
