CPython 3.1.1 docs error in noddy3 example?

"Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter" §2.1.2, the noddy3 extension 
module example, uses "S" as format character for string arguments in its call to 
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords.

This causes Noddy to only accept bytes as arguments, instead of strings (format 
"U").

I suspect this is a leftover from Python 2.x, where strings were bytes, and that 
this is a bug?
