2 remarks: 
- PyUnicode_FromFormat("%s", text) expects a utf-8 buffer.
- Very recently (r84472, r84485), some C files of CPython source code were converted to utf-8.  And most of the time, the format given to PyUnicode_FromFormat is a string literal.

So it would make sense for PyUnicode_FromFormat to consider the format string as encoded in utf-8.  This is worth asking on python-dev though.
