[Python-apps-team] Bug#641317: pyflakes: please detect "except" overwriting built-in exceptions

[Jakub Wilk]

Package: pyflakes
Version: 0.5.0-1
Severity: wishlist

It'd nice if pyflakes emitted a warning on code like this:

         try:
             oldtime=os.path.getmtime(fname)
         except OSError,IOError:
             oldtime=0

(Note missing parentheses around "OSError,IOError".)
