15609	Respect PEP 3109	Daniel Duan	nobody	"Tho porting to Python 3 has not started yet, there're things to be done without affecting the current support for Python (>2.4).

As mentioned in PEP 3109, one of Python's guiding maxims is ""there should be one -- and preferably only one -- obvious way to do it"". Specifically, raising exceptions with a message should be done in the ONE TRUE WAY since Python 1.5, as forced by Python 3: 

raise E(V)

All this patch does is to respect this principle."		closed	Uncategorized	dev		fixed	PEP		Ready for checkin	1	0	0	0	0	0
