%c will insert a single byte, either from an int in range(256), or from

what does
x = 354
b"%c" % x
produce? Seems that construct produces a value dependent error in both python 2
& 3 (although it takes a much bigger
value to produce the error in python 3, with str %... with bytes %, the problem
with be reached at 256, just like python 2).
Is this an intended exception to the overriding principle?
Hmm, thanks for spotting that. Yes, that would be a value error if anything over 255 is used, both currently in Py2,
and for bytes in Py3. As Carl suggested, a little more explanation is needed in the PEP.
