Tim Peters added the comment:

On second thought, I don't want to use a regexp for this.  The mandatory colon 
_was_ a kind of absolute wall, and the various instances of "[^:]" exploited 
that to avoid unintended matches.

But "possibly dotted name followed possibly by a colon" is straightforward to 
get right with a pair of simple string searches, so I'll introduce a new 
`_strip_exception_details()` function instead.
