Exception Handling in Python

[Suchandra Thapa]

    I'm trying to figure out how to catch an exception, do some 
error handling and then reraising the same exception in python.  
Right now, I'm doing it using the following code:

try:
    ...
except Foo:
    ...
except Bar:
    ...
except Exception, x:
    ...
    raise x
else:
    ...

which seems to work but I wanted to know if there are any problems with
this method  or if there is a better way to do it. The only potential problem
I know of right now is that user defined exception not derived from Exception
will slip through but is that much of a problem?
