[issue15836] unittest assertRaises should verify excClass is actually a BaseException class

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Uploading the new patch here is the correct procedure.  It will automatically be uploaded to rietveld as well.

If by "how" you mean how to submit a backport, just create a patch against 2.7 tip and upload it separately.

Revised patch looks good.
