That's an accident, though, and it's possible I should have
specified BaseException there. I still consider the explanation
I gave to be the true one.

Can you elaborate on that? I thought a first you were expecting
the implicit close of the generator that happens before it's
deallocated to be passed on to the subiterator, but some of your
examples seem to have the close happening *before* the del gen,
so I'm confused.
