I'm using RedHat Linux 6.0.  It's claiming it's using python 1.5.1.
    $ rpm -q python
    python-1.5.1-10

man strptime shows that there is one in the C library.

I'll try 1.5.2.  Shouldn't configure check for this sort of thing?  I know the
mod_perl configure checks for the appropriate perl version.
