Is it OK to refer to 8-bit strings under that name?
How about "expected an 8-bit string or Unicode string", when the object passed to ord() isn't of the right type.
Similarly, when the value is of the right type but has length>1,
the message is "ord() expected a character, length-%d string found".
Should that be "length-%d (string / unicode) found)"
And should the type names be changed to '8-bit string'/'Unicode
string', maybe?
