Looking in stringobject.c, I don't see how %zu (or %lu) can be used
with String_FromFormatV. Here's the code around line 260 (note
ssize_t in the comment really means Py_ssize_t):
/* handle the long flag, but only for %ld. others
can be added when necessary. */
if (*f == 'l' && *(f+1) == 'd') {
longflag = 1;
++f;
}
/* handle the ssize_t flag. */
if (*f == 'z' && *(f+1) == 'd') {
size_tflag = 1;
++f;
}
