Thanks for the reply.

Funny thing, grep revealed a small inconsistency in this error message:

Fixing the Python modules is easy, but I don’t know how to change PyErr_Format (or how to write C, for that matter :)  Do you make offers like Alexandre, who has proposed to write the C part if someone provides a diff for the Python version?
