Hi all, 

Some points:

- in a couple of places pypy has better error messages than cpython, eg around 
calling functions with the wrong number of arguments, in complex cases.

- we are certainly open to patches that improve the quality of our error 
messages, if that can be done with reasonable effort. 

- PyPy does not guarantee the same error messages as cpython, and it's a bug to 
rely on them. 

Cheers, 
Carl Friedrich
