I had used memcpy to copy the struct tm to where the caller wants it, but this assumes all callers provide their own allocated struct, which is not necessarily always the case. If callers want to keep the values of this struct tm across multiple calls to purple_str_to_time, they had better copy it themselves. (which is essentially the same as it was before when we were returning the pointer to the struct as returned by localtime(), which is also statically allocated)
