Consider the attached file. The expected behavior is for it to return
four time the exact same set of messages. GNU strptime is guaranteed
to parse POSIX C-formatted strings even if the current locale is not
C. However that's not what I get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Desktop]$ gcc test.c -o test
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Desktop]$ ./test
DEBUG: Parsed as 00-00-00
DEBUG: Parsed as 23-05-108
DEBUG: Parsed as 23-05-108
DEBUG: Parsed as 23-05-108
The same was tested on other distros and gives four identical results
while on PLD the first one results in a parsing error.
