As part of implementing PEP 3101, I need to add __format__ to object, to 
achieve the equivalent of:
class object:
 def __format__(self, format_spec):
 return format(str(self), format_spec)
I've added __format__ to int, unicode, etc., but I can't figure out 
where or how to add it to object.
Any pointers are appreciated. Something as simple as "look at foo.c" or 
"grep for __baz__" would be good enough.
Thanks!
Eric.
