Thanks for your report.
I think there is a risk of confusion for tm_mon (month) at least.
We could just copy the struct from the .h and have the range included ?
FTR, time.h says:
struct tm
{
int tm_sec; /* Seconds. [0-60] (1 leap second)
*/
int tm_min; /* Minutes. [0-59] */
int tm_hour; /* Hours. [0-23] */
int tm_mday; /* Day. [1-31] */
int tm_mon; /* Month. [0-11] */
int tm_year; /* Year - 1900. */
int tm_wday; /* Day of week. [0-6] */
int tm_yday; /* Days in year.[0-365] */
int tm_isdst; /* DST. [-1/0/1]*/
