Summary: interwiki.py crashes if bot is blocked

Initial Comment:
I have python v2.7.2

I run a bot that operates on every wiki so it is painful to modify user-config 
file every time there is a problem.

Every now and then I get all of bots interwiki operations disrupted if a 
wikipedia language edition decides to block. The bot running interwiki.py 
crashes after trying to edit that wiki. This is a problem because any block on 
any wiki effectively disables the bot until that block is lifted.

I thought this was a feature (somehow) until I was told this could be a bug.

Message:
If a bot is blocked on a wiki, just remove it from your user-config.py. I
find it not a good idea to run a blocked bot without checking the cause.
This indeed could be a malfunction and it is a good idea to stop it in
general until this has been veryfied.
