Description Ken Deeter (Kentarou Shinohara) 2002-08-29 01:58:34 UTC 
The time string that gets insterted into the headers in the chat window
cause problems if they contain non utf-8 compatible characters.

since the normal strftime is called, in some locales, non-utf8 characters
get inserted and thus a conversion to utf8 is needed.

see patch for details (its pretty much a one liner)

this was causing the header to no appear at all in some locales
