Sounds reasonable to me.

It must be you, Greg! ;-) The only thing I can think of that I do
similar to that is:
import errno
if __name__ == "__main__":
# do setup stuff...
...
# output result to file...
try:
write_result() # or whatever it really is...
except IOError, e:
if e.errno != errno.EPIPE:
raise
