Benjamin Peterson added the comment:

Throwing exceptions through CPython is totally unsupported, -fexceptions or 
not. Like C++ code that's not exception-aware, CPython lacks any of the catch 
handlers to properly clean up resources on unwind. Thus, throwing exceptions 
through CPython will lead to, at best, resource leaks and, at worst, subtle 
corruption of interpreter data structures.

I'm not sure why Debian would take this patch.
