in reply to Time::Piece->strptime formatting throws: Error parsing time . . .

Confirming toolic's observation that it is the attempt at providing the time zone (UTC) that throws off Time::Piece (tested on T::P ver 1.20_1).

It works fine if you leave out the TZ.

The error seems to be outside the perl module, when it calls an external strftime function.
