The "TypeError: Can't instantiate abstract class C with abstract methods x" exception does not get raised when when the involved ABCMeta class is derived from an Exception. The attached file shows that a class without an implementation of an abstractmethod can get instanciated; replacing the derivation from Exception with a derivation from another class (say, A) makes the instanciation throw the proper TypeError. |

Yes. This is the case for builtin types which usually get their own __new__ methods. See #5996. |
