Steve Dower added the comment:

I'll fix the PEP 7 stuff (mostly inherited).

MSVC can also handle '%#' and '%' as format strings (producing '' in both 
cases). If that matches libc behaviour, I see no reason to raise a ValueError 
here apart from consistency with previous Python releases.

If consistency with system C libraries is preferred, then I'll change the 
condition to simply break out of the loop and make the test call the function 
expecting success. I assume there's an AIX buildbot we can watch to see the 
impact on that part?
