This makes sense now. There are two issues here:
1. Decoding the output of wcsftime(). Python expects mbcs (which I
believe is an UTF16-like wide char encoding) while Windows apparently
puts cp932 there in your locale. I don't have expertise to address
this issue.
2. strptime() cannot parse strftime() output when strftime('%Z') is
different from time.tzname[dst]. This issue we can address. Note
that for most of the locale information such as day of the week or
month names, strptime() relies on strftime() output, so the
round-tripping should work even when strftime() results are
nonsensical. On the other hand, tz spellings are taken from
time.tzname. I think we can make strptime() more robust by adding
[time.strftime('%Z', (2000,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,dst) for dst in (0,1)] to the
list of recognized tz names if they differ from time.tzname.
