Tim Golden added the comment: I've committed the changes with a variant of the pre-1900 test running on all platforms. I think there's scope for more testing of the boundary conditions of strftime but that would be for another issue. I want to get this one in now as it's a crasher on Windows.

Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment: Well, the code in 2.x is quite different from that in 3.x. Specifically, the 2.x code assumes that, for Windows, no year before 1900 is valid for any of the formats. So a simple check throws a ValueError for tm_year 0. For 3.x the assumption

Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment: Yes, sorry. I wasn't clear enough. There *are* still checks in the 3.x code (for the kind of thing you're showing). But the checks assume 1000 = year = maxint is ok for all format parameters on Windows. In fact, for %y, only 1900 = year is ok.
