[issue8013] time.asctime segfaults when given a time in the far future

Thanks for the py3k patch.  I am also attaching a refreshed patch for current 2.7.  They both fix the segfaults when built and run on OS X 10.6 64-bit.  Since the patches change timemodule to use asctime_r, which AFAICT is not used elsewhere in the standard library, one concern might be if this change introduces a regression on any other platforms, something for the buildbots to test.
