If the UNIX code works on Windows, fine. I simply copied from the way that 
QDateTime::currentDateTime() works, with suitable modification to fetch 
the UTC time rather than the local time. The Windows code is untested, but 
it's simple enough to be reasonably confident that it will work.

The KDateTime constructor does not fetch the current time, so there is no 
reason why this code should be in the constructor.
