I don't think so.  The op wrote that he uses 2.4.3.  So I guess, the 
problem is, that PurchaseRequisitionController inherits (directly or 
not) from 'object'.  Although new style classes are allowed as 
exceptions in 2.5, an additional requirement is, that the exception 
must inherit from BaseException (or must not be a new style class 
instance at all, as before).
