I think the intent of the original code was to check if handle had the
attribute "name", I don't think the attribute "write" was the issue.
So then possibly this based on your suggestion:
try:
write = handel.write
except AttributeError:
raise
try:
name = handel.name
write("# Report_file: %s\n" % name)
except AttributeError:
pass
write("########################################\n")
