The difficulty is that a blank is a kosher flag modifier in C formats. So,
e.g.,
'goofy%(name) dogs'
is a legitimate Python format as is, and
>>> print 'goofy%(name) dogs' % {'name': 666}
goofy 666ogs
>>>
works correctly.
Why *Python* follows these goofy rules in all respects is a question we
don't ask <wink>.
