[issue2892] improve cElementTree iterparse error handling

[Fredrik Lundh]

Fredrik Lundh <fredrik at effbot.org> added the comment:

Note that this was fixed in upstream 1.3 (and verified by the selftests), but the fix and test was apparently lost when that code was merged into 2.7.  Since 2.7 is supposed to ship with 1.3, this is a regression, not a feature request.

(But 2.7 is in rc, and I'm on vacation, so I guess it's a bit too late to do anything about that.  I'll leave the final decision to flox and the python-dev crowd.)
