When building on the latest Cygwin, I get the following warning:
datetime.c:62:12: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strptime'
and if I use the newly built zsh to run
zsh% zmodload zsh/datetime
zsh% strftime -r '%Y' 2016
then the zsh coredumps.
Cygwin uses not glib but newlib, and feature test macros have been
overhauled in newlib-2.4 (a few months ago I guess).
It now requires _XOPEN_SOURCE to use strptime(3) in time.h.
A possible fix is to define _XOPEN_SOURCE in datetime.c (patch1 below).
Another possibility is to define _GNU_SOURCE in zsh_system.h (patch2).
Both work OK on the latest Cygwin, but I can't test on older Cygwin.
Maybe patch1 is better since it would have minimum side effects?
