When I try to compile this sample code (from the Libc.hlp file), it
compiles with no problems, HOWEVER, it does not work!!!

   what's wrong ?!?
how is it FIXED ?!?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

/* size_t strftime(char *buf, size_t n, const char *format, const
struct tm *time);  */

struct tm t;

char buf[100];

strftime(buf, 100, "%B %d, %Y", &t);

printf("Date/Time: %s\n", buf);
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
compiles: AOK
outputs:  January 00, 1900                          
              why this funky incorrect output?!?


PLEASE: What other faulty things (ie SURPRISES) am I in
                store for with DJGPP ?!?

THANKS for the help.
