backport 1.8, 1.9
--
patch 418489 from Andrew Dalke for string format bug
--
Merged in bugfix from PyUnit CVS for problem reported by Gary Todd.
If 'unittest.py' was run from the command line with the name of a test
case class as a parameter, it failed with an ugly error. (Which was a
shame, because the documentation says you can do that.)
