This is a the way to do it but sometimes %r can fail, I find it always
works when the value is turned into a tuple like '%r' % (length,).
What is also sensible is to give some information about which sub-item
Freevo cannot handle. Useful is to use the __dict__ member of the 's'
variable to find a useful member to include in the debug message.
Something like '%s' % s.__dict__ will help and when the object is very
big then '%s' % (pprint.pformat(s.__dict__),) will help.
