'man 3 ctime' says of localtime() (and friends):
"The return value points to a statically allocated struct which might be
overwritten by subsequent calls to any of the date and time functions.
The localtime_r() function does the same, but stores the data in a
user-supplied struct."
purple_str_to_time() had multiple calls to date and time functions,
although I didn't experience any problems in my testing I figured it would
be better to use localtime_r() and provide our own struct.
I hope I got this right. At least 'make check' still works :)
