I must be missing something, because this works for me:

    In [28]: d.query("""
        ...: select 
        ...:     1 as a
        ...:     /*
        ...:     ,2 as b
        ...:     */
        ...:     -- ,'hi' as c
        ...:     ,%s as d
        ...: """, ("a string", )).results
    Out[28]: [Record(a=1, d='a string')]

(d.query is a wrapper around cursor_create, execute and fetchall).

Does using %s instead of {}.format help solve the issue?
