Re: [Bug] `format' with a partially propertized format stringdoesn't work

[Richard Stallman <rms@gnu.org>]

    If the format string is not propertized completely, it doesn't:

	(let ((s "x: %s, y"))
	  (set-text-properties 3 5 '(face bold) s)
	  (format s "123456"))
	=> #("x: 123456, y" 0 3 nil 3 5 (face bold) 5 12 nil)

	(format (concat "x: " (propertize "%s" 'face 'bold) ", y") "123456")
	=> #("x: 123456, y" 0 3 nil 3 5 (face bold) 5 12 nil)

The code never tried to handle that.  I implemented it.
Thanks.
