There's a special case for the "SkipTest" exception in 2.7 (even if it
is not documented).

            try:
                self.setUp()
            except SkipTest as e:
                self._addSkip(result, str(e))
            except Exception:
                result.addError(self, sys.exc_info())

But for 2.6, you're right:

            try:
                self.setUp()
            except:
                result.addError(self, self._exc_info())
