Error: !is.na(strptime("2003-02-30", format = "%Y-%m-%d"))
is not TRUE
Execution halted
which makes clear that your platform has a broken implementation of
strptime. That's not an R bug, and no platform that anyone bothered to
alpha or beta test failed that test ....
You may want to undefine HAVE_WORKING_STRPTIME in src/include/config.h and
build again -- it is possible that will work around this.
I trust that you will now file (in the right place) a more careful bug
report on the HP-UX error you have discovered.
