I got it about strftime().

strftime() accepts/returns a string encoded by charset that is
determined by current system locale.  So (also, preferred formats
of date/time depend on locale) ---

    POSIX::strftime(FORMAT, TIME)

may be replaced with:

    Encode::decode(gettext("_charset_"),
                   POSIX::strftime(Encode::encode(gettext("_charset_"),
                                                  gettext(FORMAT)),
                                   TIME))

(I assume gettext("_charset_") designates the equivalent one of
$locale2charset{...}.  Is it right?)
