Yep, that the reason I noisily complained about this... But still, I
can live with it provided that Cython have a easy, non programatic
way, like a command line flag, to create "abc" literals as unicode.
With easy I mean a command line flag, with non-programatic, I mean I
do not have to use __future__ imports.
Regarding to your example, it will not fail in Py3, but you will get
the following:
>>> print("3 is %s" % b"good")
3 is b'good'
>>>
