Hmm, sorry... Apparently, code reviews don't catch such things, either. > I won't pretend to know how python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 3.0 and 3.1 all > treat this syntax, so could somebody who knows python take a look at > the current convert-ly and make it work on 2.4.5 and up? From the docs at python.org it seems like the comma syntax for exception variables works also with 2.4. But as I don't have any python 3.x around, I can't tell whether it still works with 3.0 and 3.1 (the docs completely switched to using "as" instead...).
