No problem, thanks for the clarifications.  And nice work on getting the
vendor to fix the library.  Between lack of support for wchar, library, and
compiler issues, writing 'standard' I/O for date_time has been a big pain. The
vast majority of the macro hacks and test failures have to do with I/O support...
