From the manual:

"Note: Not all conversion specifiers may be supported by 
your C library, in which case they will not be supported by 
PHP's strftime()."

Same thing is said in all of those bug reports you copied there..why did you still submit another one?

#1 blame microsoft
#2 blame microsoft
#3 ...

well, blaming microsoft usualy doesn't help that much,
and as i'm on rewriting part of the locale dependant
stuff anyway i *might* try to bundle some BSD version
of strftime with php instead of relying on libc 
maintainers (esp. in Redmond ;) doing their job 

(assigned to myself, changed status to suspended)
