SF patch 670012: Compatibility changes for _strptime.py.
Patch from Brett Cannon: First, the 'y' directive now handles [00, 68] as a suffix for the 21st century while [69, 99] is treated as the suffix for the 20th century (this is for Open Group compatibility). strptime now returns default values that make it a valid date ... the ability to pass in a regex object to use instead of a format string (and the inverse ability to have strptime return a regex object) has been removed. This is in preparation for a future patch that will add some caching internally to get a speed boost.
