We're still maintaining compatibility with Python 2.4 and the bug
apparently still exists, so I would perhaps keep it until we kill
support for Python 2.4.

Re: [DOCS] Exclude constraints not shown ALTER TABLE documentation page

The ALTER TABLE page does not mention any specific constraint types,
instead referring to the CREATE TABLE page.  So this is not an omission
of exclude constraints, but an intentional way to reduce duplication.

Since the bug doesn't happen in production builds of Python, only in
debug builds, I'm not really worried that it's still a factor, even
if you believe that the Python folk still haven't patched it.

In short, I agree with Heikki that we could remove this.
