But again, does this actually cause any problem? Is anyone
likely to be looking at the result of sys.exc_info() and
relying on it being empty when not handling an exception?

As far as Pyrex is concerned, I'm not all that worried
if it doesn't behave exactly the same as Python in all the
corner cases, as long as it does something reasonable.

I can understand, however, that the goals for Cython
may be different.
