New submission from Marcel Tschopp <m...@polynorm.ch>:

locale.format_string doesn't return same result as a normal "string" % format 
directive, but raises a TypeError.

>>> locale.format_string('%(key)s', {'key': 'Test'})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/locale.py", line 225, in format_string
    val[key] = format(perc.group(), val[key], grouping)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/locale.py", line 182, in format
    formatted = percent % value
TypeError: format requires a mapping
