This is kind of weird (Python 2.7.3):
try:
print "hello"
except foo:
print "foo"
prints "hello". The problem (IMHO) is that apparently the except clause
doesn't get evaluated until after some exception is caught. Which means
it never notices that foo is not defined until it's too late

I have an integer that I want to encode as a hex string, but I don't
want "0x" at the beginning, nor do I want "L" at the end if it happened
to be a long. The result needs to be something I can pass to int(h, 16)
to get back my original integer.
The brute force way works:
