Huh? The change you showed wasn't reverted AFAICT; it's still on the trunk. > otherwise those few exceptions >that don't derive from Exception won't be printed correctly by the >traceback module: It looks like the original change (not the change you listed) should've been using "issubclass(etype, BaseException)". (I only reverted the removal of 'isinstance()', which was causing string exceptions to break.) Anyway, looks like a four-letter fix (i.e. add "Base" there), unless there was some other problem I'm missing? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
