`yield` in a `try/finally` block, pre-Python 2.5

[Adam Atlas]

I'm trying to emulate the Python 2.5 behaviour (PEP 342) of generator
functions where the `yield` statement is in a `try/finally` block.
Basically, where the `finally` block is guaranteed to run even if the
generator doesn't finish running: it simply runs when the generator is
garbage-collected. Does anyone know a good way of doing this? I'm
looking to see if there's a way to bring about an exception in another
frame in pure Python, but I haven't found anything yet.

I had the same problem, you can see: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/130004
for a solution.

Happy hacking,

Thanks. I thought of doing something like that, but in my program,
it's important that the order follow the actual nesting order. That
is, I have a few nested generator each of which has its own 'finally',
and I need the innermost ones to run first. How can I deal with that?
