Instead of all that try/except noise, just use the new defaultdict:
>>> from collections import defaultdict
>>>
>>> d = {'a' : 1, 'b' : 3, 'c' : 2,'d' : 3,'e' : 1,'f' : 4}
>>>
>>> dd = defaultdict(list)
>>> for key, value in d.items():
... dd[value].append(key)
...
>>> for k,v in dd.items():
... print k,':',v
...
1 : ['a', 'e']
2 : ['c']
3 : ['b', 'd']
4 : ['f']
