OK, after some testing i can now reproduce this behavior even with english system locale. For that,
just use
setlocale(LC_ALL, "japanese");
I've also tested a bit more and it looks that at least codepages 932, 936, 950 affect strftime
to be working a different way, at least with vc11. I made a mini build with vc12, so you can test it
http://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/ostc/65371/
(you'll need the 64 bit crt redistributable http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784).
But actually I'm more like don't believe it's about CRT but the strftime and locale
itself. It seems to build a special case along with the code pages listed above (and maybe more).
Many other locales which set a single byte code page show correct behaviors when passing utf8
strings to strftime. Yet another try could be with using _strftime_l, however it's the same as
strftime just needs an explicitly passed locale, so more like a no-go.
Thanks.

I hear this bug is because of VC11 strftime.
Workround is below:
function strftime_win($str)
{
$str = mb_convert_encoding($str, 'CP932', 'UTF-8');
return mb_convert_encoding(strftime($str), 'UTF-8', 'CP932');
}

Could you please revisit this? There was a lot of locale fixes recently, you could check 5.5.21 or
just some recent 5.5 on windows.php.net .
Thanks.

I found Windows system locale affects the result.
I changed it to English(US), then I got expected result.
The problem occurs in Japanese locale.
