I prefer an OverflowError. I don't like having to enable a flag to fix a bug :-(

According to the issue title, it's really a bug: "format method: c presentation 
type *broken* in 2.7".

Note: The unit test may check the error message, currently the error message is 
irrevelant (it mentions unicode whereas bytes (str type) are used).

>>> format(-1, "c")
OverflowError: %c arg not in range(0x110000) (wide Python build)
