Only recognize the expected output as an exception if it *starts* with
a traceback message. I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output. This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3. The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.
