Must pass the format string to strftime in the C library's locale's

2008-02-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* gtk/gtkfilechooserdefault.c (list_mtime_data_func) [Win32]: Must
	pass the format string to strftime in the C library's locale's
	charset, not the system's. Correspondingly, the return value from
	strftime() is in the C library's locale's charset. (#509885)
