I would say that "tmppos" must not starte with the space as the return from
strptime() is a ptr to the first unconverted char.
Oracle did introduce a lot of changes in strptime() since snv97, it the problem
is still in Oracle Solaris, it makes sense to report as Oracle should be
currently prepared to work on strptime() as we recently discussed strptime() in
the POSIX teleconferences.
