IOBinding.open looks for an self.editwin.interp (after 
having already verified that self.editwin exists), but 
catches exceptions with a bare except.  This narrows 
it to an AttributeError.

(Note that the save method already assumes that 
missing attributes on an editwin will be represented 
as AtributeError rather than TypeError.)

Rev 53650.
This wasn't really worth a patch.  What other exception could have occurred?  (Yes, it's nicer to be narrow :)
