OK, I didn't see this because it wasn't attached to the ticket. I posted an alternate patch on #1014 which just addresses the "old data" problem in string->time. As far as I can tell, the various uses of C_tm can not interfere with each other and all one needs to do is initialize C_tm to a sane default just prior to calling strptime. Does that look correct?
