New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>:
The C implementation supports both formats "n" and "N". The Python
implementation only supports format "n".
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> format(Decimal('1e100'), 'n')
'1e+100'
>>> format(Decimal('1e100'), 'N')
'1E+100'
>>> from _pydecimal import Decimal
>>> format(Decimal('1e100'), 'n')
'1e+100'
>>> format(Decimal('1e100'), 'N')
Traceback (most recent call last):
