New submission from Mark Summerfield:

I don't know if this is a bug, but it is certainly a difference in
behavior between platforms:

Python 3.0a2 on linux2:
>>> "{0:.3e}".format(123.45678901)
'1.235e+02'

Python 3.0a2 on win32:
>>> "{0:.3e}".format(123.45678901)
'1.235e+002'

It seems to me that str.format() should produce consistent results
across platforms, but I don't think the PEP says anything either way.
