Run it at perl-5.40.0, you get: $ perl -v | head -2 | tail -1 This is perl 5, version 40, subversion 0 (v5.40.0) built for x86_64-linux

Run it at HEAD of blead, you get: $ bleadperl -v | head -2 | tail -1 This is perl 5, version 41, subversion 1 (v5.41.1 (v5.41.0-106-g99e7291a16)) built for x86_64-linux

I adapted his progam to be suitable for bisection: $ cat strftime-problem.pl
use strict; use warnings;
use POSIX qw(strftime);
my $linux_date = date '+%s'
;
chomp $linux_date;
my $posix_strftime = strftime('%s', localtime);
my $perl_time = time;
die 'POSIX::strftime anomaly' if ( ($posix_strftime != $linux_date) || ($posix_strftime != $perl_time) );
$ perl strftime-problem.pl
$ bleadperl strftime-problem.pl POSIX::strftime anomaly at strftime-problem.pl line 13.

Fix up and make sv_strftime_ints() public
This enhanced function now allows you to specify if you want the system
to consider the possibility of daylight savings time being in effect.
Formerly, it was never considered. As a result, the function is good
enough to be made public.
If this is a change in the behavior of POSIX::strftime to which we are committed, then (a) we should prepare for a log of complaints starting with the release of perl-5.41.1 (which I hope will be soon); and (b) we will have to figure out how to educate the general perl-using public about that change in behavior. @khwilliamson and others, please comment. Thanks!
