Fred Drake c32741d1ab Added warnings about platform vagaries to the strptime() documentation.
This closes SourceForge bug .

Thomas Wouters f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Fred Drake 29fa30ea6b Correct a markup nit that caused a space to be dropped from the HTML
version (actually a LaTeX2HTML bug), and clarified a sentence in the
mktime() description based entirely on comments from Grant Griffin
<grant.griffin@honeywell.com>.

Fred Drake abc8cc63ce Move some \index entries around so we can avoid using empty comments;
