WMS time YYYY pattern problem

[Yewondwossen Assefa]

Mapserver used strptime to convert th time to a tm time structure. On 
Linux it uses the system function and on windows there is a local copy 
of the function in mapserver (strptime.c). Cheking the local code used 
for windows, It could have problems with dates before 1970.
