Looks like a bug in psycopg2's setup.py file.  Try editing it and
removing the parentheses on line 219 (so it just reads "except
Warning, w:".

This is an error/warning code path, so it is likely that there is
something else you'll need to do to install psycopg2, but this should
make the error display.
