Subject: No longer need to be very careful with saving the exception state
X-Git-Tag: v1.5a4~126
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c90ad2103eb9aca14b7a910cbcdcd7b570f690ab;p=python

No longer need to be very careful with saving the exception state
first.  Don't store the traceback as a local variable, to avoid
circular references.
