If you are referring to bug #763047 and its cohort #763052, then 
no, I don't think so.  Those I think were an actual bug in the code.  
But there *is* a possibility since _strptime does call time.tzset 
when it calculates what timezones it knows about.

I am unassigning from myself since I have never touched 
time.tzset (don't remember who wrote time.tzset off the top of my 
head but it is a Python 2.3 feature).

Brett, is this related to the other failures?

What OS are you using?  Redhat 6.2, perhaps?  Can you test
patch 762934?  http://python.org/sf/762934
