directive that is not documented that strptime will as well.

Fix bug #1520914 . Starting in 2.4, time.strftime() began to check the bounds
...
of values in the time tuple passed in. Unfortunately people came to rely on
undocumented behaviour of setting unneeded values to 0, regardless of if it was
within the valid range. Now those values force the value internally to the
minimum value when 0 is passed in.

Have strftime() check its time tuple argument to make sure the tuple's values

are within proper boundaries as specified in the docs.
This can break possible code (datetime module needed changing, for instance)

day of year).

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
...
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an

does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.
