The following code-snippet fails to see the microseconds portion of a datetime:

-- CUT HERE --
from datetime import datetime
dt=datetime.now()
dt.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")+","+dt.strftime("%f")
-- CUT HERE --
-- RESULT FROM JYTHON 2.5.1:
'2010-12-20 14:37:04,'%f'

This is the output from cpython (actually release 2.6 - so not testing like with like?):

-- RESULT FROM CPYTHON 2.6.2
'2010-12-20 14:37:33,884'

%f must have only been added in 2.6
