[New-bugs-announce] [issue20010] time.strftime('%z') didn't make +HHMM return in windows xp

[Civa Lin]

New submission from Civa Lin:

On windows xp (Taiwanese) platform...

    c:\> py -c "import time; print(time.strftime('%z', time.localtime()))"

It will raise a UnicodeEncodeError in my system.

I think it's not a +HHMM format and has different behavior with document:
    http://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.strftime
