[issue13602] format string '%b' doesn't work as expected

[James Classen]

New submission from James Classen jclas...@gmail.com:

I notice that, in versions 2.7 and 3.2 on Windows XP (haven't tested any other 
versions or platforms), the following statements in the interpreter work as 
documented:

'%x' % 17
'%o' % 17

and output '11' and '21' respectively, as I expect. However,

'%b' % 17

throws ValueError: unsupported format character 'b' (0x62) at index 1 instead 
of returning '10001'.

I didn't see section 4.6.2 of the library for 3.2 documentation, only section 
5.6.2 of the 2.7 docs. So this is an invalid issue.
