I have tried to remove this forced conversion and came to notice that
following code is doing this conversion of error_type from  <class
'zExceptions.NotFound'> to string


/home/zope/ztrunk25/lib/python/OFS/SimpleItem.py(186)
if hasattr(error_type, '__name__'):
                error_type=error_type.__name__

But I couldn't make proper type cast here.
Can anybody help me in doing so?
