Summary: PEP 8 uses wrong raise syntax

Initial Comment:
Despite the recommendation in "Programming
Recommendations" to use::

    raise ValueError('message')

instead of::

    raise ValueError, 'message'

the PEP itself uses the second form under the "Maximum
Line Length" section::

    raise ValueError, "sorry, you lose"
    ...
    raise ValueError, "I don't think so"
