Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: \x00 is used as a flag internally meaning "use the default fill character". That's clearly a bug. I'll look at fixing it.
I think there are other places in the built in __format__ functions where special values are used instead of flags. I'll review those as well.
