Gerrat Rickert:

The error type is the same, but the message is different.  I'm not sure if pypy is supposed to return the same error message or not, so my apologies for the noise if not.

in CPython 2.7.8:
>>> [3]*(3.0//2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'
>>>

in pypy 2.4:
>>>> [3]*(3.0//2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for *: 'list' and 'float'
