... but that doesn't do much, because time.struct_time in 2.7 doesn't 
recognise anything that strptime passes in as a tz at all, as it expects 
the dst flag in that position and seems to have no concept of tz at all.

So in 2.7 you can probably forget any question of reading in tz info with 
datetime.strptime().

See another reply to the OP regarding Python 3.2
