check for strptime()

Trying to fix an issue with the interbase extension.

Does anyone know if the build system on UNIX ever contained a test for the
availability of strptime() ? The Interbase module uses the HAVE_STRPTIME
macro, but it never gets #defined. Would anyone object if I add such a test?

I would suggest not to use this function, as it's highly system
dependent. It might be much wiser to use the new date/time parsing
routines instead.

Replying to myself:
apparently it does contain such a test, so I'll have to check out the
system that's causing trouble (Jochem, are you reading this?)

Please disregard for now.
