Yes, it was Win32 Python -- and also Jeremy's Linux.  It "got fixed" by
focing the locale to "C" at the end of test_logging.py.  That's probably not
a correct fix, just a bandaid.  Brett is on vacation, and I have no real
idea what strptime is trying to do with locale; it appears to be a bug that
strptime tries to be locale-independent but that the strptime test in
test_time.py fails if test_logging (which changes the locale) isn't hacked
to force locale (back?) to "C" at its end.
