#12261: strftime function from django.utils.datetime_safe doesn't work properly
in
years below 1000

---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
If a model has a DateTimeField attribute, in order to serialize the
objects, django uses the format "%Y/%m/%d". However the function
{{{strftime}}} doesn't handle properly the option "%Y" in years below
1000: instead to fill with zeros (0) until to complete the 4 digits, it
uses spaces. Therefore, at deserialization time django raises a exception.
Currently
{{{
>>> datetime_safe.date(850, 8, 2).strftime("%Y/%m/%d")
' 850/00/02'
}}}
It must to be
{{{
>>> datetime_safe.date(850, 8, 2).strftime("%Y/%m/%d")
'0850/00/02'
}}}
The simplest patch is atached, but this issue can be deeper.
