New submission from Samuele Santi:
Looks like, on some occasions, running ``Decimal('garbage')`` on Python 3.x
decimal raises this error:
decimal.InvalidOperation: [<class 'decimal.ConversionSyntax'>]
instead of the usual:
decimal.InvalidOperation: Invalid literal for Decimal: 'garbage'
This seems to be caused by the built-in decimal module on 3.x, while it's just
fine with decimal.py / _pydecimal.py (eg. the system Python on Archlinux).
I'm attaching the output from a few tests I made against different interpreters.
