#3876: %T format specifier with local_time_facet crashes with MSVC 9
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  Claudio Bley  |       Owner:  az_sw_dude
     Type:  Bugs          |      Status:  new       
Milestone:  Boost 1.42.0  |   Component:  date_time 
  Version:  Boost 1.41.0  |    Severity:  Problem   
 Keywords:                |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 The following program crashes with MSVC9 when trying to write the
 local_date_time to the stringstream:
 {{{
 #!cpp
 #include <boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp>
 #include <iostream>
 #include <string>
 #include <sstream>

 int
 main()
 {
     using namespace boost::posix_time;
     using namespace boost::local_time;

     time_zone_ptr utc;
     local_date_time now(microsec_clock::universal_time(), utc);

     local_time_facet* output_facet = new local_time_facet();
     local_time_input_facet* input_facet = new local_time_input_facet();

     std::stringstream ss;
     ss.imbue(std::locale(std::locale::classic(), output_facet));
     ss.imbue(std::locale(ss.getloc(), input_facet));

     //
 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_41_0/doc/html/date_time/date_time_io.html#date_time.format_flags

     // %T !  The time in 24-hour notation (%H:%M:%S)
     output_facet->format("%T");

     ss << now; // crash in _Strftime_l
 }
 }}}

 With MinGW 4.4.0 it just ignores the %T format specifier. What's the deal
 with %T?
