a) Is Exception to be new-style?
Probably not in 2.5; Martin and others have suggested that this could
introduce instability for users' existing exception classes.
Really? I thought that was eventually decided to be a very small amount of code.
I still think that only an experiment could decide: somebody should
come up with a patch that does that, and we will see what breaks.
I still have the *feeling* that this has significant impact, but
I could not pin-point this to any specific problem I anticipate.
