Rob Cliffe <rob.cli...@btinternet.com> added the comment: I would not be at all surprised if my patch could be simplified (in fact I'd be surprised if it couldn't). However, I did try out your version on Python 2.5 specifically, and it did not work for me. Trying it out on help(Exception), the relevant members of object.__subclasses__() viz. <type 'exceptions.StandardError'>, <type 'exceptions.StopIteration'> etc. had a __module__attribute which equalled 'exceptions', not 'builtins'. Best wishes Rob Cliffe
