I recently committed a fix for unicodeobject.c so that the %d, %i, and %u format specifiers always output values (otherwise, in subclasses, the str() was used instead).
Should this be fixed in 3.3 as well?
What guidelines determine when a bug is fixed in previous versions?
If it's a bug in that version and the version is accepting bug fixes, i.e., not in security mode, go for it. This includes crossing the 2/3 boundary if applicable.
