Stefan Krah <ste...@bytereef.org> added the comment:

The thing is that Python explicitly supports any object as the "message".

I was quite pleased when I discovered that because it provides a way
to include both signals and the condition list in the "message", which can be 
used in programs for dispatching on the condition, not only
on the signal.

Signals directly map to the exceptions, but there can be more than one
condition that caused the signal.
