I think there's a pre-existing confusion here, which is that we should
really treat ztrftime return value of both 0 and -1 as failure.  The 0
comes from strftime(), which returns the number of characters it's
succesfully converted (the manual helpfully says 0 "doesn't necessarily
indicate an error", just that it coverted nothing); the -1 was a local
enhancement.

I'll fix this locally before submitting.
