There are many new exception types in Python 3 that inherit from
OSError. They are designed to be more precise than disambiguuating the
many reasons an OSError might be raised.
In Python 2, the same condition causes an OSError with the ‘errno’
attribute equal to ‘errno.ECONNREFUSED’.

Others may come up with more efficient ways, depending on what you're
trying to maximise. Here is one robust way, with code that (if I've
written it right) works unchanged on Python 2 and Python 3::
import errno
try:
ConnectionRefusedError
except NameError:
ConnectionRefusedError = NotImplemented
try:
short_routine()
except ConnectionRefusedError as exc:
handle_connection_refused(exc)
except OSError as exc:
if exc.errno == errno.ECONNREFUSED:
handle_connection_refused(exc)
else:
raise
