That's not what I understand the transformation to be. I thought the
transformation we were talking about was:
re = get_resource()
...
try:
something()
except RareException, re:
try:
...
finally:
re = None
del re
...
re.use_resource()
Per these rules:

Perhaps the example transformation you provided is better, in that at
least you can't make the mistake I'm worried about. But it seems a
bit gratuitous (and expensive) to delete N variables when there are N
except clauses.
In any event, if I was mistaken about the transformation that occurs,
I apologize and withdraw my SyntaxWarning suggestion.
