[issue25537] Call `isinstance` instead of `issubclass` during exception handling

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Ah, now I understand.  That is definitely not something that could go into 2.7.  It is also a level of change that would need to go to python-ideas first, and possibly even a PEP.  Closing this pending such a discussion.
