Summary: time.strptime() 1,200 times slower in python2.3

Initial Comment:
time.strptime() ist about 1,200 (onethousand and
twohundred) times slower in 2.3 than in 2.2! (1m:48.45s
vs. 0.09s) This is caused by the pure python
implementation. 

Fix:
I simply repaced the function time_strptime(PyObject
*self, PyObject *args) from
Python-2.3/Modules/timemodule.c with the function from
python 2.2. 
Maybe 'configure' should check for existence of the
strptime() function on the target system and use it, if
available?

Regards,
Malte
