[issue7094] Add alternate float formatting styles to new-style formatting.

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah added the comment:

This might be out of date: _decimal has never implemented alternate
formatting and so far there have been no reported issues.

Another data point: Go apparently implements alternate formatting
only for octal, hex and strings:

http://golang.org/pkg/fmt/


So I'm unsure if anyone is actually using alternate formatting.
I think complaints about 2-to-3 porting problems should have
surfaced by now.
