Thanks. Actually I have no idea if this is a bug or a feature (despite reading bug tracker issues 2517 and 6108, most of which I did not understand) so I'm not in a position to argue either. What I think I'll do is note in my documentation that the unreadable error messages are from Python and are only temporary for a couple years until the app can move to Python 3. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
