Yes, but I agree with Greg that "unraisable" is wrong. After all, it was raised, and it can even be caught by the programmer (inside del).

How about something like "Uncaught exception in del method ignored"? It explains fairly clearly what has happened, and also indicates what do do about it -- catch it in the del method.
