I think that's Antoine's PEP 3151. Interestingly, he doesn't mention
EINVAL at all.

That's right. It is based on a survey of existing exception-catching
code in the stdlib. There's only one match in the whole Lib/ subtree:
$ grep -r EINVAL Lib/
Lib/plat-sunos5/STROPTS.py:968:EINVAL = 22
I guess EINVAL would most often indicate a programming error, which is
why it doesn't get handled specifically in except clauses.
For setgroups it means you exceeded a platform-specific limit. On
Windows, for non-blocking connect, it means wait a little longer.
