   Not all conversion specifiers may be supported by your C library, in which
   case they will not be supported by PHP's <function>strftime</function>.
   Additionally, not all platforms support negative timestamps, so your
   date range may be limited to no earlier than the Unix epoch. This means that
   %e, %T, %R and, %D (and possibly others) - as well as dates prior to
   <literal>Jan 1, 1970</literal> - will not work on Windows, some Linux
   distributions, and a few other operating systems. For Windows systems, a
   complete overview of supported conversion specifiers can be found at
   <link xlink:href="&url.strftime.win32;"><acronym>MSDN</acronym></link>.

    %G and %V, which are based on ISO 8601:1988 week numbers can
    give unexpected (albeit correct) results if the numbering system
    is not thoroughly understood.  See %V examples in this manual page.
