Comment (by rws):

 @Jeroen, what reason is there in the respective snippet of
 `Function::__call__` l.478-491 not to do the following:
 {{{
                 nargs = [None]*len(args)
                 for i in range(len(args)):
                     carg = args[i]
                     try:
                         nargs[i] = SR.coerce(carg)
                     except Exception:
                         nargs[i] = SR(carg)
 }}}
 i.e. not throwing at all. I keep needing exceptions like the `Qp` of this
 ticket.

 Do we have a fundamental problem here? Why can `rings.arith...` handle
 this differently?
