Commit message looks OK, but...

Seems like out of sync between commit message and the docs change above. Did you mean the (unsupported) host languages are Python, BASH script, TCL/TK, and Perl respectively? If so, the docs should say:

"Note that `--format=%(raw) can not be used with `--python`, `--shell`, `-tcl`, and `--perl` because such languages may not support arbitrary binary data in their string variable type."

Thanks.
