Right, not without looking at the text of the exception, which, apart from
being extremely would be unreliable. Too bad there's not a Python exception
for incorrect function/method arg passing.

Ha! There's pretty much the whole of this thread in there. I'll look more
carefully in trac next time. I did look at some point, and saw another
issue discussing what to do if a non-deferred is yielded.
Thanks again.
