Fwiw, a class with methods __long__ and __float__ but no method __int__ behaves strangely in many other places; the canonical example is that calling "int(Foo(42))" will not work. In light of this, does it make sense for "'%d' % Foo(42)" to work? Shouldn't the fix instead be to cleanly raise the TypeError instead?
