I use multiprocess in one of my project. When an exception which
requires mandatory argument is raised by a server process, is not
re-raised properly to client process. I get an error something like
below
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "prod.py", line 69, in <module>
 main()
 File "prod.py", line 61, in main
 print myobj.fun3()
 File "<string>", line 2, in fun3
 File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/multiprocessing/managers.py", line 759,
in _callmethod
 kind, result = conn.recv()
TypeError: ('__init__() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)', <class
'__main__.MyException2'>, ())
However, if an exception which has optional argument is raised by
server process, is re-raised properly to client process.
Below is a reproducer.

I use python 2.7.3 on fedora 17 on x86_64 (rpm version is
python-2.7.3-6.fc17.x86_64)
