Yeah, that's just a hack to set the timezone used by strftime(). (Anyone 
know if there's a better way to do that?).  You can just put #ifndef 
WIN32 around those calls in strftime_r.c if you want.

However, I'm pretty sure that getenv and setenv exist on MinGW 
somewhere. strftime_r.h includes stdlib.h but maybe on MinGW they're 
actually in unistd.h, or maybe even in windows.h or something.
