I can confirm this. It is caused by test__locale that is
executed before test_format (and also, test_unicode fails
likewise). See:

Not only test_format but also test_unicode fail on my
Mandrake 10 box.
My default locale is nl_NL. Behold:

[irmen at atlantis Python-2.4a1]$ cat testcases.in
test__locale
test_format
test_unicode

[irmen at atlantis Python-2.4a1]$ ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py
-f testcases.in
test__locale
test_format
