Based on the behaviour of str and the fact that overriding unicode.__repr__ works just fine, I'd say file a bug on SF. I think this bit in PyUnicode_Format needs to use PyUnicode_CheckExact instead of PyUnicode_Check: case 's': case 'r': if (PyUnicode_Check(v) && c == 's') { The corresponding code in PyString_Format makes a call to _PyObject_Str which deals with subclasses correctly.
