   Hey! Strptime uses [system `strptime`](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/cpp/src/arrow/util/value_parsing.h#L793) on linux/MacOS and [vendored strptime](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/cpp/src/arrow/vendored/musl/strptime.c) on windows. As per comment [here](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/cpp/src/arrow/util/value_parsing_test.cc#L787-L813):
   ```
     // N.B. GNU %z supports ISO8601 format while BSD %z supports only
     // +HHMM or -HHMM and POSIX doesn't appear to define %z at all
   ```
   I suspect `strptime(["2012-01-01 01:02:03+0100"], format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S%z", unit="s")` will work on MacOS.
   Thanks for reporting this @ayhanfuat ! Let's include this into the umbrella issue as it would be nice to fix.
