How is this...

different from this...

        try:
            logger.debug('Fiber starting: %s', self)
            try:
                self._result = self._routine()
            finally:
                logger.debug('Fiber finished: %s', self)
            raise FiberExit(self)
        finally:
            self._finished.set()
            unregister_fiber(self)

That should do exactly what you want, shouldn't it?
