[New-bugs-announce] [issue25963] strptime not parsing some timezones

[Utkonos]

New submission from Utkonos:

I get a ValueError when running the following through strptime:

datetime.datetime.strptime('(CST)', '(%Z)')

But the following works:
datetime.datetime.strptime('(EST)', '(%Z)')

PST and MST also trigger the same exception.
