[IronPython] Bug in time.strptime?

I'm getting an exception in IronPython which I don't get in CPython.

>From the CPython console window:

>>> import time, datetime
>>> d = time.strptime("July 3, 2006 At 0724 GMT", "%B %d, %Y At %H%M GMT")
>>> print d
(2006, 7, 3, 7, 24, 0, 0, 184, -1)


>From IronPython, a similar set of statements:

engine.Execute("import datetime")
engine.Execute("d = time.strptime(""July 3, 2006 At 0724 GMT"", ""%B %d, %Y
At %H%M GMT"")")

results in this exception:
The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word
starting at index 13.



The word starting at index 13 is the "At" but the format string provided
should tell strptime how to interpret it.
