Not clear what you're saying. Every ostream object stores a
locale object in its basic_ios base class. (Whether the
locale object is actually stored in basic_ios base or even
deeper in the ios_base subobject is a gray area.) The facet
time_put should be obtained as needed from this locale
object. VC++ certainly does this, but I don't understand
what difference in behavior you're identifying for g++.
