[issue17705] Fill Character cannot be \0

[Jason Michalski]

Jason Michalski added the comment:

I worked on a patch that allows NUL padding for longs, floats and complex numbers. It seems NUL was being used as a sentinel in the format string parsing when no padding character is given. It was then replaced with a space in each call to fill_padding if it was NUL.
