File a bug report?


Looks like it's already been wontfixed back in 2006:

http://bugs.python.org/issue1501180


Absolutely bloody typical, turned down because of an idiot.  Who the hell is
Tim Peters anyway? :)

I don't really disagree with him, anyway.  It is a rather obscure bug
-- is it worth increasing the memory footprint of slice objects by 80%
in order to fix it?


Thinking about it I entirely agree. An 80% increase in memory foorprint where the slice objects are being used with Python 3.3.0 Unicode would have disastrous consequences given the dire state of said Unicode, which is why some regular contributors here are giving up with Python and using Go.

Oh gosh look at the time, I'm just going for a walk so I can talk with the Pixies at the bottom of my garden before they go night nights.
