  I don't know if requiring class-based exceptions will make the
runtime any simpler, but that seems the only reason to do it.
  The only reason to remove -X, and possibly the string exception
fallback code, is to ensure that we *can* subclass Exception and
friends without having to catch TypeError and do something different.
