I agree that SubWCRev should not crash. But your string is still wrong:
%T is not a valid formatting code.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fe06s4ak(VS.71).aspx for
valid formatting codes.

The problem is however that the strftime() function crashes when invalid
formatting codes are passed to it. Maybe I can find a way around that,
but I won't promise anything here...
