   * staticly created struct and return a pointer to that. These wrapper
   * functions require the user to create a std::tm struct and send in a
   * pointer to it. This struct may be used to store the resulting time.
   * The returned pointer may or may not point to this struct, however,
   * it will point to the result of the corresponding function.
   * All functions do proper checking of the C function results and throw
   * exceptions on error. Therefore the functions will never return NULL.
