Thanks, Alexandre! Agreed on both points. I don't really want to allow u'big'
and u'little', but I think that's just my laziness talking. (Apart from that,
I have a working patch.)
There's some precedent for not allowing the unicode versions:
>>> float.__getformat__("double")
'IEEE, little-endian'
>>> float.__getformat__(u"double")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: __getformat__() argument must be string, not unicode
But I admit it isn't particularly compelling.
