SVN: ZODB/branches/jim-exception-mess/src/ZODB/POSException.py Change the way exceptions are handled to try to provide cross-python

Log message for revision 111149:
  Change the way exceptions are handled to try to provide cross-python
  compatibility.
  
  This turns out to be a bad idea, because we can get around
  cross-python exception compatibility problems by updating clients
  first.  Checking in for posterity. :)
