 Currently date_time library uses time_put::put (that delegates to
 strftime) in a non portable way passing it a tm structure with tm_hour
 field with values outside 0-23 range.  See ISO 14882-2003 22.2.5.3.1 par.
 1 and ISO 9899-1999 7.23.3.5 par. 3.

 The issue was already discussed on the Boost mailing list:
 http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2007/12/131541.php


 This patch makes boost::date_time::time_facet::put(... ,
 time_duration_type) output %H itself.  As well as modifies
 boost::date_time::time_input_facet::get(... , time_duration_type) to input
 %H field as a variable length integer.
