No problem. I'll keep updating the code from newkernel.

Thanks, that's great, and I've fixed it now. It was unpacking the exception
into variables, which is no longer possible in Python 3. I think this will
be compatible with Python 2.6, so I may put it back into ipy3-preparation at
some point. One question: the code describes stuffing the filename into the
exception '(because Python's parser always uses "<string>" when reading from
a string)'. In what context is this used? Disabling it doesn't seem to make
any difference in the cases I've tried, but have I overlooked something?

Best wishes,
Thomas
