Looking in stringobject.c, I don't see how %zu (or %lu) can be used with String_FromFormatV.

Right. It currently cannot be used. So if it is desired, it needs to be added first, and then should be used.
I added it: %u, %lu, and %zu can be used now in PyString_FromFormat, PyErr_Format, and PyString_FromFormatV. Since PyString_FromFormat and PyErr_Format have exactly the same rules (both inherited from PyString_FromFormatV), but their docs were way out of synch, it would be good if someone with more LaTeX Fu changed one of them to just point to the other. I simply did a massive copy+paste job to get them in synch again.
