> It appears that one of the strptime tests returns NA in Arrow but not in R.
> Reading the test, it uses R to first strftime and then tests that Arrow and R
> both strptime that back, so it could be an R quirk: R recognizes and can do
> something with this strptime token round trip, but our library doesn't.
> Unfortunately, I don't know which token it is though because these tests are
> run in a for loop and the failure message doesn't say which token is the one
> that is failing. testthat does provide some facilities for reporting useful
> things within a loop, so we should wire those up.
> In addition to better handling of tests in a loop, we should probably just
> skip this whole thing on CRAN.
