Subject: When time.localtime() is passed a tick count the platform C localtime()
X-Git-Tag: v2.3c1~2421
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8b19a93b87d6514fec9918cd0b13cefbaca83950;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

When time.localtime() is passed a tick count the platform C localtime()
function can't handle, don't raise IOError -- that doesn't make sense.
Raise ValueError instead.

Bugfix candidate.
