I don't recall stumbling over that need, but the parallel makes it
tempting.  I expect is should be a separate patch, though.

Antoine's right about using keyword args from C, though.  I'd expect a
new helper function that handles this specific case, since it's likely
to be common.  Whether it used a keyword are or just performed a
setattr after the exception is created doesn't really matter.
