3.0 has documentation for str.format(), but that documentation is
missing in 2.6.  The 2.6 what's new document:
http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html also has an XXX reference
to this: 
"Consult the 2.6 documentation for a complete list (XXX add link, once
it’s in the 2.6 docs), but here’s a sample:"

When backporting to 2.6, this needs to be documented for both str and
unicode.

Okay, backported (mostly copied) the docs, and added the whatsnew link,
in r63166.
