That's because the first argument is not an input buffer,
but an output buffer. MSDN also calls it 'strDest'.

Linux manpage calls it 's', but I think it means String, not Src.

If you can review the patch, please use the attached one instead.
I modified it in response to the discussion of pg_do_encoding_conversion.


BTW, I cannot understand the comment in the function head,

+ * result is obtained by locale setup of LC_TIME in the environment 
+ * of windows at present CP_ACP. Therefore, conversion is needed
+ * for SERVER_ENCODING. SJIS which is not especially made to server 
+ * encoding in Japan returns. 

but it probably says:

----
strftime in Windows returns in CP_ACP encoding, but it could be
different from SERVER_ENCODING. Especially, Windows Japanese edition
requires conversions because it uses SJIS as CP_ACP, but we don't
support SJIS as a server encoding.

I hope you would review my English not only C ;-)
