When is a number not a number

Hi, Does anyone think this needs to be posted to the bug tracker? lxml seems to identify superscripts as an integer but then throws an exception. Thanks Alex from lxml import objectify xml = """ <types> <mysuperscript>²²²²²²²²²²</mysuperscript> </types> """ doc = objectify.fromstring(xml) print(objectify.dump(doc)) Traceback (most recent call last): File “**********.py", line 11, in <module> print(objectify.dump(doc)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "src/lxml/objectify.pyx", line 1521, in lxml.objectify.dump File "src/lxml/objectify.pyx", line 1549, in lxml.objectify._dump File "src/lxml/objectify.pyx", line 1526, in lxml.objectify._dump File "src/lxml/objectify.pyx", line 646, in lxml.objectify.NumberElement.__repr__ File "src/lxml/objectify.pyx", line 946, in lxml.objectify._parseNumber ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '²²²²²²²²²²'
