"Nesting arguments and more complex examples"
at http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#format-examples

Below example code is no errors:
>>> for align, text in zip('<^>', ['left', 'center', 'right']):
...     '{0:{align}{fill}16}'.format(text, fill=align, align=align)

I think meaning is as follows:
...     '{0:{fill}{align}16}'.format(text, fill=align, align=align)
