Hello,
I'm trying to either use ctime() or strftime() to convert an int
containing the seconds since the epoch to a human readable string,
but
so far, the only thing I get are segfaults:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int main()
{
        char timestr[40];
        ctime_r((time_t *) time(NULL), timestr);
        printf("Time: %s\n", timestr);
        return 0;
}

Will result in a segfault and nothing else. The same happens when
I try to feed the int to gmtime() so I could use the resulting struct
tm as input to strftime(). What am I doing wrong (4.4RC)?


Best regards,
 Gabriel
J
