Description changed by jdemeyer:

Old description:

> All these should be `ValueError`:
> {{{
> sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='lex(3),degrevlex(0)')
> ...
> AssertionError
> }}}
> {{{
> sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='lex(3),degrevlex(1)')
> ...
> TypeError: Term order length does not match the number of generators
> }}}
> {{{
> sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='foo')
> ...
> TypeError: Unknown term order 'foo'
> }}}

New description:

 If the term order is invalid, a `ValueError` should be raised instead of
 the following:
 {{{
 sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='lex(3),degrevlex(1)')
 ...
 TypeError: Term order length does not match the number of generators
 }}}
 {{{
 sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='foo')
 ...
 TypeError: Unknown term order 'foo'
 }}}
 The following also raise the wrong exception, but could in fact be
 accepted:
 {{{
 sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='lex(3),degrevlex(0)')
 ...
 AssertionError
 }}}
 {{{
 sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 3, order='lex(3)')
 ...
 TypeError: Unknown term order 'lex(3)'
 }}}
