So using sys.excepthook to catch errors only works once.
The error bubbles through the event processing loop, breaking it and hanging the application. Instead, there is now a .exception(e) method on XMLStream which may be overridden or reassigned that will receive all unhandled exceptions (read: not XMPPError) from event and stream handlers.
