Suppose a $C^1$ classical solution existed and set $w=u+iv$. The system is preciselywhich are the Cauchy-Riemann equations for $w$ as a function of the complex number $z=x+it$. Hence $w$ is holomorphic near $z=0$. Every holomorphic function is real analytic, so its restrictionto the real axis is real analytic near zero. Its real part and imaginary part show that both $f$ and $g$ must be real analytic, contradicting the hypothesis. Therefore no such $C^1$ solution exists.
