I subsequently have been told that the parts that 2to3 had trouble with were 
bad practice to begin with - but what do I know. Most of the other examples 
2to3 converted (once I discovered it existed and how to use it in my setup) or 
I was able to decipher myself.

I've just run that recipe through 2to3 with no problem, so exactly what do you mean by "parts that 2to3 had trouble with"?

Possibly this?

-        except IOError, (strerror, errno):
-            print 'Error: Could not open file to read --->', self._ifile
+        except IOError as xxx_todo_changeme:
+            (strerror, errno) = xxx_todo_changeme.args
+            print('Error: Could not open file to read --->', self._ifile)
