Windows uses FILETIME, which starts counting from 1st Jan of year 1601 and,
unlike time_t, can't be negative, so Windows simply has no way
to do timestamp-math for dates before then. SYSTEMTIME (an equivalent
of struct tm) can, obviously, represent almost arbitrary date starting
from 1st Jan of year 0 (it's unsigned...), but GetDateFormatW() converts it
to FILETIME at some point in its implementation, and fails.
Unless the whole strftime() implementation of GDate is replaced by
something that doesn't rely on WinAPI, this part of the test will
never pass.
