My patch converts the format string to unicode using the default encoding. It's inconsistent with str%args: str%args converts str to unicode using the ASCII charset (if a least one argument is an unicode string), not the default encoding. >>> "\xff%s" % u'\xe9' ... UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
