Unfortunately it's not ok.  I added it to the repository two days ago
and removed some minutes later, when I found that the localedef.h file
is licensed under the 4-clause BSD license.  However, the only reason
to use NetBSD's strptime.c instead of the FreeBSD version was to replace
a 4-clause BSD file with a non-4-clause BSD file.  I've just checked in
a fix which just moves everything into strptime.cc.  Unfortunately there's
no 3- or 2-clause localedef.h available :(
