[PATCH v1 0/1] man/man3/strptime.3: fix typos

[Stan Ulbrych]

A little patch to fix a few little issues I noticed in the doc. I've
never contributed here before so I'm not sure if I'm doing it all
right, if not, apologies!

Thanks!  I've applied the patch.

It was a bit weirdly formatted, but it worked.  You may want to look at
