Unfortunately, PyDict_GetItem suppresses all such exceptions for  
historic reasons, but of course the getitem slot does not (which we  
must emulate). This results in the code being a bit uglier and  
reaching into Python's internals:

  . This should probably be benchmarked to see if it's worth the bother.
