[New-bugs-announce] [issue8915] Use locale.nl_langinfo in _strptime

[Brett Cannon]

New submission from Brett Cannon <brett at python.org>:

It might perform better to use locale.nl_langinfo to get the current locale's datetime information instead of reverse-engineering from strftime (need to benchmark to see if this is true). This would need to be conditional as the datetime info might not be exposed through nl_langinfo.
