>Environment:
System: NetBSD idefix.johani.org 4.0_BETA2 NetBSD 4.0_BETA2 (XEN2_DOM0) #1: Tue Jan 9 12:07:45 CET 2007 root@peach.johani.org:/usr/store/source/netbsd/netbsd-4/kernels.i386/XEN2_DOM0 i386
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
	While debugging some code that works under Linux but fails
	under NetBSD I eventually realized that our strptime is
	(a) different from Linux and (b) not the inverse of our own
	strftime.

	I do not claim to understand the details of time formats, but it would
	seem to be wrong that strftime can produce a string that strptime
	cannot parse. Especially as other OSes don't have the same limitation.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Just read the docs. 
>Fix:
	First we need to decide if this is a bug or not.
