Error: !is.na(strptime("2003-02-30", format = "%Y-%m-%d")) is not TRUE
Execution halted

which makes clear that your platform has a broken implementation of 
strptime.  That's not an R bug, and no platform that anyone bothered to 
alpha or beta test failed that test ....

You may want to undefine HAVE_WORKING_STRPTIME in src/include/config.h and
build again -- it is possible that will work around this.

I trust that you will now file (in the right place) a more careful bug
report on the HP-UX error you have discovered.
