commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=5ad4ac083276b3504889c39351a56d947f172b5f
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

As investigated in bug #7646, wcsftime() doesn't work properly with
uClibc. Until it gets fixed in uClibc, let's tell Python 3 to not use
it. Python 3 will fall back to strftime(), which works properly.
