Tested on 2.3 (Fedora Core 3) and 2.4 (Ubuntu 5.04).
The documentation strongly suggests that the csv module
raises csv.Error when there are problems parsing the
csv, but in fact it sometimes lets _csv.Error escape
the C module, as per this example:

>>> import csv, StringIO
>>> r = csv.reader(StringIO.StringIO('"xx,qq'))
>>> r.next()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
_csv.Error: newline inside string

csv.Error and _csv.Error are the same object. The object is
defined in the low level _csv module, then imported into the
csv module. That the name is "_csv.Error" can't be changed
in the context of the csv module.
