[issue19691] Weird wording in RuntimeError doc

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

The RuntimeError documentation has a strange sentence embedded in it:

"""This exception is mostly a relic from a previous version of the interpreter; it is not used very much any more"""

http://docs.python.org/dev/library/exceptions.html#RuntimeError

That's quite wrong. RuntimeError may not be raised inside the interpreter core, but it's raised by a bunch of stdlib modules.
