Summary: Wrong description for PyErr_Restore

Initial Comment:
The description for PyErr_Restore() says: "The 
exception type should be a string or class; if it is a 
class, the value should be an instance of that class."

This is apparently wrong, if you call PyErr_SetString() 
for example, the value is a string object, and the 
exception type is whatever has been passed to the call.

I don't know the rules, so I cannot supply a patch.
