| Um, you're not taking 2.6 into consideration here. Remember that there
has
| to be a way to spell all these APIs in 2.6 that will still work in 3.0.
| IMO, this seems sufficient reason to keep sys.exc_info() around, since
| there *has* to be some way to access the current exception and traceback,
| that exists in *both* 2.6 and 3.0.
>From what I understand of Guido's recent comments on the 2.6 list, 'has to
be' is a bit strong. Pehaps he will 'have to' clarify.
