Shouldn't that read:
struct rm res;
struct tm * now = localtime_r(&t, &res);

Otherwise you pass in an undefined ptr to localtime_r. The whole point of 
localtime_r is to have your own per-thread buffer. Also note that if any 
other threads in the process call localtime it may break localtime_r on some 
systems, since its sometimes implemented as a call to localtime with a mutex 
round it!
