About the only things I can think of which might break would be doctests, but people expect those to break across third-dot releases of Python (one reason why I hate them). My impression is that we avoid enhancing correct exception messages in bugfix (third-dot) releases because of both doctests and other in-code examination of messages.
But these exception messages are incorrect, and so we are okay to fix them, yes?
