To use `strptime()`, the documentation indicates #define _XOPEN_SOURCE #include <time.h> However, previously this was done wrongly. For example, when building with musl we got a warning: CC meta.lo meta.c:40: warning: "_XOPEN_SOURCE" redefined 40 | #define _XOPEN_SOURCE | In file included from /usr/include/errno.h:8, from meta.c:13: /usr/include/features.h:16: note: this is the location of the previous definition 16 | #define _XOPEN_SOURCE 700 | Defining "__USE_XOPEN" is wrong. This is a glibc internal define not for the user. Note that if we just set _XOPEN_SOURCE (or _XOPEN_SOURCE=700), we won't get other things like "struct tm.tm_gmtoff". Instead, we already define _GNU_SOURCE at other places. Do that here too, it will give us strptime() and all is good. Also, those directives should be defined as first thing (or via "-D" command line). See [1]. This is also important, because to use "time_t" in a header, we would need to include <time.h>. That only works, if we get the feature test macros right. That is, define the _?_SOURCE macro as first thing.
