Summary: time.strptime() fails with unicode date string, de_DE locale

Initial Comment:
Trying to parse a German date string fails in Python
2.4.1. Test case attached.

Since there's no indenting, I suppose the test case can
also be pasted here:

import locale, time
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_TIME, 'de_DE')
date = u'10. September 2005 um 17:26'
format = '%d. %B %Y um %H:%M'
time.strptime(date, format)
