Actually, no it isn't. It's only valid up to Python 2.4. In Python 2.5,
string exceptions display a warning but continue to work, and in Python 2.6
they generate a compile-time SyntaxError.
Thaanks for the correction.
You know how the world ended when Python 2.6 broke backwards compatibility
and split the Python community into two? No, me neither.
I'm 100% certain that you're wrong on this one, the split was simply
never noticed by anybody :)
