[issue3173] external strftime for Python?

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

The Qt library has its own strftime() implementation. The QLocale object has methods providing localized day and month names. For example, day names are implemented using a big ushort array (~20.000 bytes) which contains something like 'Sun;Mon;Tue;Wed;Thu;Fri;Sat;Sunday;Monday;Tuesday;Wednesday;Thursday;Friday;Saturday;S;M;T;W;T;F;S;7;1;2;3;4;5;6;;;;;;;;Dil;Wix;Qib;Rob;Kam;Jim;San;Dilbata;Wiixata;Qibxata;Roobii;Kamiisa;Jimaata;Sanbata;A;E;T;A;K;G;S;Aca;Etl;Tal;Arb;Kam;Gum;Sab;Acaada;Etleeni;Talaata;Arbaqa;Kamiisi;Gumqata;Sabti;1;2;3;4;5;6;7;So;Ma;Di;Wo;Do;Vr;Sa;Sondag;Maandag;Dinsdag;Woensdag;Donderdag;Vrydag;Saterdag;D;H;M;M;E;P;S;Die;H\xebn;Mar;M\xebr;(...)'.
