The best I can do is search austingroupbugs.net for all bugs containing
strftime, which pulls up a current total of 25 issues.
Thanks for doing that. I read through those issues, and the only one that seems
relevant (i.e., resolved by austingroup but not in Gnulib) is the business with
the + conversion specification flag. I installed this Gnulib patch to implement
the flag:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=188d87b05190690d6f8b0577ec65ef221a711d08
Then I installed the attached coreutils patches to propagate the Gnulib patch
into coreutils, and I am marking this coreutils bug as done.
glibc strftime should also support the + conversion specification flag. I filed
a bug report for that here:
