Updated the patch to address an oversight in the new test cases.

I think Issue 6294 is probably the same underlying issue. The patch there could be used as the basis for a Python 2 patch. My patches here are for Python 3, and I suspect the code is significantly different in each version, because the error messages are different.

Comparison (for bikeshedding etc) with the message produced by the “traceback” module when str() fails:

>>> try:
...     raise BrokenStrException("message")
... except BrokenStrException:
...     print_exc()
...     raise
... 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 2, in <module>
BrokenStrException: <unprintable BrokenStrException object>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 2, in <module>
__main__.BrokenStrException: <str() failed>
