Comment (by flupzor):

 I've discovered the problem, I think it's a bug in PyPy. But I don't know
 if there is any Python API specification where this is specified in.

 The difference lies in the way the `__repr__` is made for date, time and
 datetime classes.

 In pypy the `__repr__` is determined as follows:

 date:
 
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/5d676752ae6613d0b423f4c1028ac47e1571d5fa/lib_pypy/datetime.py?at=default#cl-790
 time:
 
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/5d676752ae6613d0b423f4c1028ac47e1571d5fa/lib_pypy/datetime.py?at=default#cl-1281
 datetime:
 
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/5d676752ae6613d0b423f4c1028ac47e1571d5fa/lib_pypy/datetime.py?at=default#cl-1692

 While in cpython it is done like this:

 date:
 https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/_datetimemodule.c#L2633
 time:
 https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/_datetimemodule.c#L3581
 datetime:
 https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/_datetimemodule.c#L4442

 Which causes the date, datetime and time classes in datetime_safe module
 to return the wrong __repr__ value.

 e.g. in cpython 2 and 3 repr(datetime_safe.date(2015, 1, 1)) would return:
         date(2015, 1, 1)

 While in pypy this would return:
         datetime.date(2015, 1, 1)

 And the same would happen for datetime and time.

 There are three solutions I can think of:

 - Override the ` __repr__` function in datetime_safe.{date,time,datetime}
 which return the representation consistently for both PyPy and cpython.
 - Make an hard "if PyPy" condition and then don't prepend the 'datetime'
 in that case (this would be the ugly solution imo)
 - Fix it in PyPy.
