Not sure I understand the question.  Were you asking if that'd be OK
elsewhere in the function too?

Apologies for the delay, and good point.  I should have used eqv? rather
than char=?, i.e.

             (let ((ch (read-char port)))
               (when (eqv? ch #\:)
                   (set! ch (read-char port))
               (if (eof-object? ch)
                   (time-error 'string->date 'bad-date-template-string
                               (list "Invalid time zone number" ch)))
               (set! ...))
