buf is unused if !HAVE_CTIME_R.

Note that both ctime and ctime_r are obsolescent and should be replaced
by strftime.  gdb currently doesn't setlocale LC_TIME, but if it does it
would make the use of these functions undefined.

Andreas.

Thanks, fixed.

I read through the manpage for ctime/ctime_r and I don't see any note
that the behavior is undefined when setlocale is called, or that it is
obsolete. For completeness, I also looked at the Solaris manpage and
it does not say that either. Instead, it will use a locale-independent
format, which seems desirable here since it is serialized into XML.
