calendar module fails to import on Wine due to incomplete %OB error handling

Title: calendar module fails to import on Wine due to incomplete %OB error handling

Component: Library (Lib)
Type: bug
Python Version: 3.15

Summary:

The calendar module added in Python 3.15 (gh-131146) fails to import when running
under Wine because the error handling for unsupported %OB/%Ob format specifiers
is incomplete.

The try/except block catches ValueError during _localized_month object construction,
but the actual strftime call happens lazily in getitem when set() iterates
over the sequence in the else block.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run Python 3.15 under Wine (any version 9.0-11.14)
2. Execute: import calendar

Expected Result:

calendar module imports successfully, falling back to month_name/month_abbr
when %OB/%Ob are not supported

Actual Result:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "calendar.py", line 156, in
File "calendar.py", line 110, in getitem
ValueError: Invalid format string

Analysis:

In Lib/calendar.py lines 143-156:

try:
standalone_month_name = _localized_month('%OB')
standalone_month_abbr = _localized_month('%Ob')
except ValueError:
standalone_month_name = month_name
standalone_month_abbr = month_abbr
else:
# This calls getitem which triggers the actual strftime call
if len(set(standalone_month_name)) != len(set(month_name)): # <-- ValueError here
standalone_month_name = month_name

The _localized_month constructor just stores the format string; the actual
datetime.strftime() call happens in getitem when set() iterates. Wine's
strftime doesn't support %O and raises ValueError at this point, which is
not caught.

Suggested Fix:

Wrap the set() comparison in the else block with try/except:

try:
standalone_month_name = _localized_month('%OB')
standalone_month_abbr = _localized_month('%Ob')
except ValueError:
standalone_month_name = month_name
standalone_month_abbr = month_abbr
else:
try:
if len(set(standalone_month_name)) != len(set(month_name)):
standalone_month_name = month_name
if len(set(standalone_month_abbr)) != len(set(month_abbr)):
standalone_month_abbr = month_abbr
except ValueError:
standalone_month_name = month_name
standalone_month_abbr = month_abbr

Impact:

This breaks Python 3.15 compatibility with Wine, affecting users who build
Windows executables using PyInstaller under Wine (a common CI/CD pattern).

Comece em Lib/calendar.py por volta das linhas 143-156 e reproduza import calendar no Wine, concentrando-se nas chamadas lazy de strftime nas sequências de meses independentes. O trabalho estará concluído quando os formatos %OB/%Ob não compatíveis não impedirem mais a importação e os valores regulares de month_name/month_abbr forem usados como fallback; os PRs vinculados gh-155269 e gh-155317 indicam que esse trabalho já está em andamento.
