Preferred exception style?

[Dave Benjamin]

Hey folks,

I was just wondering which style you prefer for raising exceptions. I never
really thought about it much, but I was looking at some code today that said:

raise SomeException, 'some relevant message'

and I tend to do it like this:

raise SomeException('some relevant message')

The two forms seem to have identical results. Any reason to prefer one over
the other? Which do you use?

Thanks,
Dave
