Summary: string exceptions are deprecated
Initial Comment:
The deprecation (or at least pending deprecation) of
string exceptions should be mentioned in the doc.
There is no mention in ref 4.2: Doc/ref/ref4.tex. I'm
not sure if the references to using strings should be
removed or left in with a note/warning that string
exceptions are deprecated and should be removed. I'll
make the fix. Just let me know how to proceed.

Ok, I've removed all the references I found. Hope it looks
good.
Checked in as:
* api/exceptions.tex: 1.15
* doc/doc.tex: 1.72
* lib/libexcs.tex: 1.52
* lib/libsys.tex: 1.64
* ref/ref4.tex: 1.36

I'll suggest this approach:
Remove all mention of string exceptions from the main text,
and then add a child subsection (or whatever) or a "notice"**
that describes string exceptions and their deprecated status.
The C API reference already discusses the deprecation, but
that could stand to be updated to mention the
PendingDeprecationWarning.
When your changes are ready, commit them to CVS; it's
easier for me to look at them once their in. And I'm sure
you'll do reasonable things. ;-)
** "notice" is a LaTeX environment in the Python styles:
\begin{notice}
text goes here
\end{notice}
