%z isn't available on all platforms in the date formatting

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the patch.  What about just removing strftime() entirely and
making the %z workaround the standard code path so it gets used/tested
more?  I don't think there'd be a discernable overhead on a modern
system and the ancient ones tend to stay around forever...  I'd like
to avoid rarely executed code paths if possible.
