[PATCH] Don't dump core if localtime returns NULL

[Paul Eggert]

* examples/loadables/stat.c (stattime):
* examples/loadables/strftime.c (strftime_builtin):
* lib/readline/examples/histexamp.c (main):
* parse.y (decode_prompt_string):
Do something reasonable if localtime returns NULL.
This can happen, for example, if someone sets the system
clock to such an absurdly high value so that tm_year cannot
represent the year, and localtime returns NULL with
errno == EOVERFLOW.
