Comment (by ddrake):
One note: string formatting when raising an exception is, in many cases, a
really bad idea, since generating the string may take a really long time.
This mostly happens when trying to represent a very large number or other
Sage object, and can dramatically slow down some algorithms which try
things, catch exceptions, and then try other things without looking at the
error message.
I ''think'' the string formatting here is fine, since it should just be
mixing in another simple error message, but it seems wise to leave a
warning here.
