[IronPython] __dict__ of exception instances

[Dino Viehland]

Interestingly it happens for any exception class with any property:

>>> BaseException().abc
<OperationFailed object at 0x000000000000002C>

This is somehow related to the new-style exception support for 2.5 compatibility.

Strange...  Filed as http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=15571 and thanks for reporting this!

Hello guys,

Attempting to access the '__dict__' attribute of a SyntaxError exception
in IP2a8 *returns* an 'OperationFailed' object.

The codeop module (Python standard library) compiles source code and
*compares* the __dict__ attribute of SyntaxError exception instances...

(I can work around this bug for the interactive interpreter...)
