DateTime::Format::Strptime fails test

[Isaac Hollander]

I need to install DateTime::Format::ISO8601, which depends on 
DateTime::Format::Builder, which in turns depends on 
DateTime::Format::Strptime.

Unfortunately, the Strptime module fails with
t/004_locale_defaults.t .. 1/48
#   Failed test 'en_US : %x : year'
#   at t/004_locale_defaults.t line 44.
#          got: '2019'
#     expected: '1998'
Can't call method "year" on an undefined value at 
t/004_locale_defaults.t line 44.

which prevents the entire set of modules from installing.


This is with stock Perl 5.8.8 on CentOS 5.3, downloading modules from CPAN.

I see there were issues with the French locale a couple of years ago, 
but this seems to be a new issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Isaac
