I just tried this statement:

==========================================
cursor.execute( '''INSERT INTO counters(page, hits) VALUES(%s, %s) RETURNING (pin) 
								ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE hits = hits + 1''', (htmlpage, 1) )
	except MySQLdb.Error, e:
		print ( "Query Error: ", sys.exc_info()[1].excepinfo()[2] )
==========================================

and the error python tells me is:

<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'ProgrammingError' object has no attribute 'excepinfo' 
      args = ("'ProgrammingError' object has no attribute 'excepinfo'",) 
      message = "'ProgrammingError' object has no attribute 'excepinfo'"
