When using binascii.a2b_hex (or binascii.unhexlify) and the argument is invalid, the doc states that it should raise a TypeError for invalid arguments (e.g. passing an odd-length string).

However, it does raise binascii.Error instead of TypeError:

try:
    binascii.a2b_hex('a')
except Exception as exc:
    print(type(exc))
