>>> # Py30a3
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "en_US.UTF8")
'en_US.UTF8'
>>> locale.format("%d", 12345, True)
'12,345'
>>> "{0:n}".format(12345)
'12345'
According to the docs the 'n' format should use the locale-dependent
separator, so I expected both strings to be '12,345'.
Also, it is a pity that locale.format() uses the old deprecated % syntax
rather than the much nicer and better str.format() syntax.

The same issue exists with floats:
# continuing the example
>>> locale.format("%g", 12345, True)
'12,345'
>>> "{0:n}".format(12345.0)
'12345'
The same issue exists in 2.6.
