Py3k behavior seems to be better:
Python 3.0a2+ (py3k:61137M, Feb 29 2008, 15:17:29)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367)] on darwin
>>> try:
... raise ValueError("foo")
... except object:
... pass
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 3, in <module>
TypeError: catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException is
not allowed
Something needs to be done for 2.6: at the minimum a warning should be
issued under -3 option.
