Summary: _hotshot sloppy in error handling

Initial Comment:
_hotshot is rather sloppy in its handling of I/O errors. The low-level flush_data() routine checks for 
I/O errors, sets an exception and returns -1, but all the routines calling flush_data() then happily 
ignore this. The effect of this is that the exception is orphaned and will come back to haunt you at a 
completely unexpected moment.

Fixed to do proper propogation of exceptions in
Modules/_hotshot.c revision 1.11.
