The following branch commits by alikins fix this bug...

RHEL6.2 branch commit ed5f1172f33db33e97cbc5a6d3fe10ee97039557 by Adrian Likins
master branch commit bc4d620ae1a475a15cd89dcbc20742e2d45a9d79 by Adrian Likins

747024: restore previous behaviour for unhandled exceptions

As part of the change to handle unicode strings in error
messages, handle exception was changed to just pass
in handle_exceptions passed in msg. This changed behaviour
for some error cases, so return that, but ignore msgs
passed to systemExit that do not have string reprs.

Verifying Version...
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-0.96.17-1.el6.x86_64

[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager config --help | grep remove
List, set, or remove the configuration parameters in use by this machine.
  --remove=REMOVE       remove configuration entry by section.name

[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager config --remove  --server.hostname=10.65.193.160
No section: '--server'

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is the correct expected result because option --remove takes a value and "--server" is the following value for which there is no section in rhsm.conf by that name.

Changing the order of the options will correctly achieve the result spandey was looking for in comment 0...

[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager config --server.hostname=10.65.193.160 --remove
Usage: subscription-manager config [OPTIONS]

subscription-manager: error: --remove option requires an argument
