As mentioned in a followup to issue #1, GetDateFormatW can fail with "any of the parameters are invalid".

I suspect that this has something to do with the MAKELCID macro.

And yes, the Linux Kernel sources set the precedent for the use of "bitches" as a technical term.

In issue #3, GetDateFormat was bitching mysteriously. Of course, the
default windows error message was useless.

So I went ahead and added a crapload of diagnostics & error reporting to
clarify what's going on.

I also refactored some arrow code, here and there.

I'm pretty sure that I've fixed this, but I need another excuse to complain about GetDateFormatEx. It's an annoying api.
