New submission from Joshua Ringer <i.atent.d...@gmail.com>:
Exception instance args for decimal errors are supposed to be a descriptive
string. However, in the c module, they are currently a list of one containing
the underlying exception class. The pure python module is correct.
See the following interpreter output for further detail:
