Datetime crashes while running script from the command line. When running the same date string from the interpreter (Ubuntu 16.04) it does not crash.

date = datetime.datetime.strptime('May 01 23:59:59 +0000 2016', '%b %d %H:%M:%S +0000 %Y')

Jens, the issue seems to be related to the locale under which your script is operating. You could try to ensure that the locale is suitable for the %b switch. In any case this doesn't look like a datetime bug.
