Summary: update to PEP 344 - exception attributes

Initial Comment:
PEP 344 proposes adding __traceback__, __context__, and __cause__ attributes to 
Exception.

The primary objection has been that the __traceback__ exception would cause a 
cycle, which would delay resource release.

This objection is now added to the PEP, along with some details about why it is 
a problem, and why weakrefs aren't a straightforward solution.
