I bet it's the localization setup again. This has bit bpython in the past. Looking at the whois data for google.com using the commandline "whois" tool, I see an expiration date of "14-sep-2020". The "whois" package tries to "cast" strings to dates by applying datetime.strptime and a bunch of known formats, and just gives you a string if all formats fail. The format that should match here is '%d-%b-%Y', and %b is locale-sensitive (just checked the docs). This code in whois is a little dodgy, it needs to find a locale-insensitive way of parsing this date. It would be good if bpython would not be different from regular python here, but if I recall correctly that's hard: there was a reason we set up localization, and evaluating your code in a separate interpreter is not an easy feature to add to bpython.
