Message 206409 - Python tracker

Thank you, Victor and Serhiy, for your pointers into the code.

I'm hoping we have general agreement about %c, %o, %x, and %X and having them use __index__ only (using __int__ would open the door to float conversions).

I still have a question about %i, though.  The docs say %u is exactly the same as %d and is therefore deprecated.  The docs do not say thay %i is the same as %d, but the descriptions are the same.

Are %i and %d the same, or is there some difference?
