Summary: allow py_compile to re-raise exceptions

Initial Comment:
py_compile does not re-raise exceptions so that they
can be caught by the calling program. The following
example illustrates the problem:

-----begin bad_prog.py-----
print "hello
-----end   bad_prog.py-----


-----begin test_compile.py-----
from py_compile import compile

class CompileError(Exception): pass

fl = 'bad_prog.py'
try:
    compile(fl)
except Exception,msg:
    raise CompileError, '%s: %s' % (msg,fl)
-----end   test_compile.py-----

-----
[~]:python test_compile.py 
  File "bad_prog.py", line 1
    print "hello
               ^
SyntaxError: invalid token
-----
Note that CompileError is not raised.


The attached simple patch should take care of the
problem (and I hope not cause any bad side effects).

There's no uploaded file!  You have to check the

Please try again.

(This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do
nothing about. :-( )
