-------------------------------------+------------------------
 Using the "%s" format flag with an input string that does not end with
 fractional seconds leads to dereferencing of an "end" iterator, causing
 memory corruption.

 Sample code:

 {{{
 std::string fmt = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%s";
 std::stringstream ss;
 ss.imbue(std::locale(ss.getloc(), new
 boost::posix_time::time_input_facet(fmt)));
 ss << "2010-05-10 10:03:05";
 boost::posix_time::ptime pt;
 ss >> pt;
 }}}
