Isn't this what raise by itself does?

>>> def test(d=None):
...     try:
...             1/d
...     except TypeError:
...             return 0
...     except:
...             raise
...
>>> test()
0
>>> test(0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "<stdin>", line 3, in test
ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
