Certainly none of that in ZODB, or in ZRS.  Definitely some in Zope 2.6:

I don't think there are any string exceptions in Zope 2.7, Zope 2.8,
or Zope 3.  Development on Zope 2.6 stopped about a year ago, so the
2.6 story will never change; by the same token, no version of Python
after 2.3.5 will ever be approved for use with 2.6 anyway.
