string interpolation and long integers

[dmost at magna.com.au]

There doesnt seem to be any support for interpolating long integeers
into strings using the "String" % (params, ...) notation.

%d, %D, %x, %X all seem to render integers fine, but raise exceptions
for long integers. %ld makes no difference either.

You can interpolate long integers with the %s notation, but you get
an 'L' on the end of the number. "%s" % 1L --> "1L"

A quick fix/addition for 1.6 perhaps?
