Oops, that suppresses the exception. Fixed:

    def set_clipboard_text(text):
        hMem = global_alloc_from_text(text)
        try:
            win32clipboard.SetClipboardData(win32clipboard.CF_UNICODETEXT,
                                            hMem)
            # Now the system owns the global memory.
        except:
            kernel32.GlobalFree(hMem)
            raise
