Why is 'e' ending up as a string rather than the ImportError object?
This is with Python 2.6.5 if that makes a difference...
It's a known bug in Python 2.6 and earlier. See
http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.7.html#porting-to-python-2-7
When was it introduced?
I've been relying on the value being an exception a lot in 2.5, and only
hit problems in 2.6 with ImportError, everything else seems fine, which
doesn't agree with Florent's statements in #7853...
