With PEP 344, this could simply be:
try:
       parser.parseFile(file)
   exeption Exception, exception:
       raise type(exception)("Error at line %s in file %s" % (x,y))
Only if we also made all exceptions new-style classes.

That's just a minor nit, though.  The more important question to me is:

Do you care about the difference between a secondary exception that was
raised intentionally (as in your example) and a secondary exception due
to a problem in exception handling?

(For me, the answer is yes.)
