Your efforts are appreciated but an implementation that 
uses Win32 API's would be better since that would make
msvcrt (and thus Wine) more portable. Right now msvcrt 
uses only two unix API's, times() and localtime(), and
I was planning to get rid of those in order to make it
build on MinGW.

Also timezones and such complications may be better handled that way...
