I see the string "bionic" rather than "openbsd" there, so that appears to be *Bionic's* strptime.c that's unhappy.  Is there a requirement that Bionic's strptime.c be unchanged from OpenBSD's?

(BTW, is there some software using Markdown involved here?  the ``` won't change the formatting to fixed format in plain-text or HTML email; in the former, what you see is pretty much what you get, and in the latter, you'd need whatever tags ``` turns into.)

Exactly.
