New submission from Tim Shaffer <timshaf...@me.com>:

The documentation for ConfigParser.items(section, raw=False, vars=None) says 
the following:

> Changed in version 3.2: Items present in vars no longer appear in the result. 
> The previous behaviour mixed actual parser options with variables provided 
> for interpolation.

https://docs.python.org/3/library/configparser.html#configparser.ConfigParser.items

However, this does not seem to be the case. The keys from vars are present in 
the output. Tested on 3.6.5.

This example shows the issue:

    import configparser

    config = configparser.ConfigParser()

    config.add_section('example')
    config.set('example', 'name', 'timster %(suffix)s')

    data = config.items('example', vars={'suffix': 'user'})

    print(data)


Expected output:

    [('name', 'timster user')]

Actual output:

    [('name', 'timster user'), ('suffix', 'user')]
