+- Made the error message for time.strptime when the data data and format do
+ match be more clear.
+
 - Fix a bug in traceback.format_exception_only() that led to an error
 being raised when print_exc() was called without an exception set.
 In version 2.4, this printed "None", restored that behavior.
