[pypy-dev] datetime module

[David Fraser]

Hi

I have been testing out pypy for the first time...
I wanted to get the datetime module working and found that there was a 
pure python implementation of it done before the C implementation, in 
the nondist/sandbox/datetime module on Python CVS.
This implementation works fairly well on pypy:
- in order to test it, the attached patch to test_datetime is needed to 
avoid problems with pickle and gc
- other than pickling, the only test failures are below
The datetime.py can be got directly here:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/python/python/nondist/sandbox/datetime/datetime.py?content-type=text%2Fplain&rev=1.160
