I think there's three problems here:
1) We need to look at the return value from `strftime()` and if it's `0`, fallback to the failure mode.
2) Different locales may require a different buffer size.
3) `%c` isn't specified to return the same thing as `asctime()` though it frequently will.
So I think `TimeString` should probably have a hard-coded buffer size that's a bit bigger than we expect is necessary, like `char TimeString[64];`, and the format string to `strftime()` should be `%a %b %d %T %Y`, and we should check the return value of the call to `strftime()` and fall back to `?? .. ?` if the value is 0.
