[issue1312] doctest EXCEPTION_RE can't handle preceding output

[Sean Reifschneider]

Sean Reifschneider <jafo at tummy.com> added the comment:

The existing tests include a test explicitly for the existing behavior,
including the statement: "An example may not generate output before it
raises an exception".  In order to be able to accept this change, there
is going to have to be discussion in python-dev or here about changing
the behavior.
