As far as I know, our format-time-string is just a wrapper around the
platform strftime, and I think that is the right thing to
do---platform routines for parsing date/time strings will work right,
and so on.

strftime doesn't support field widths and such, AFAIK.  If you want
those, you can use a normal `format' with components of a time
structure, eg from `decode-time'.

I guess XEmacs doesn't support the same argument modifiers to the
format-time-string function than Emacs does.
