[issue1230540] sys.excepthook doesn't work in threads

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

A Thread.excepthook() method does not allow to notify exceptions raised in C-created threads ("dummy threads").

Also, as I said already, you can get the current thread by calling threading.current_thread() in the except hook. There is no need to pass it explicitly to the except hook.
