but this was not a good idea. On cygwin, V09datetime.ztst fails as

*** 1,2 ****
! 6_6_3_3
  000000
--- 1,2 ----
!
  000000
Test ./V09datetime.ztst failed: output differs from expected as shown above for:
  strftime %-m_%f_%K_%L 1181100000
  strftime %6. 0
Was testing: zsh extensions
./V09datetime.ztst: test failed.

strftime(3) on cygwin is from newlib (not gnu libc) and does not support
any of gnu extensions including the %- modifier. But man zshmisc says:

    The GNU extension that a `-' between the % and the format  char-
    acter  causes  a leading zero or space to be stripped is handled
    directly by the shell for the format characters d, f, H,  k,  l,
    m, M, S and y; any other format characters are provided to strf-
    time() with any leading `-', present, so the handling is  system
    dependent.  Further GNU extensions are not supported at present.

so %-m etc. needs be supported also on cygwin? The simplest fix would be
to move the #ifndef HAVE_STRFTIME back to the original position:

diff --git a/Src/utils.c b/Src/utils.c

BTW, the last part of the above man page
"Further GNU extensions are not supported at present."
needs be updated?
