Pandas version checks

  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd
x = pd.to_datetime('87156549591102612381000001219H5',infer_datetime_format=True, errors='coerce')

Issue Description

Function should return NaT in case of problem, not exception decimal.DivisionImpossible:
InvalidOperation: [<class 'decimal.DivisionImpossible'>]

Problem present also in former versions of pandas.

Expected Behavior

x = pd.NaT
