 The documentation says that opengroup() should raise ValueError if it
 fails to open the group.
 Instead it fails with:

 {{{
 <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: not all arguments converted during string
 formatting
 }}}

 in __getnxclass()


 I think this is a bug in {{{__getnxclass()}}} and it affects other API
 functions as well (e.g. openpath)
