Hmm that seems strange, it works just fine in all the places I have done it, 
the only issue is zope not liking the returned object if it is not a single 
item. When it is reading over records it is raising exceptions in the calls 
to getObject() sometimes and on all the tests it just does not return those 
objects which is exactly what it should do.

http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.3/ref/yield.html#l2h-510

According to those docs you can't use yield inside a try finally not a try 
except.

I wanted to use yield because records from a Catalog is already lazy and I did 
not want to load a bunch of objects into ram that I did not need to, that is 
why I did not return a list.
