So there is a difference, on some platform(s), between inheriting the value of TZ from the environment and setting it at runtime. Using tzset() is the 'portable' thing to do.
Okay, thanks.
Didn't I answer an almost identical question from David a few months ago?
Possibly. I had reported an issue with TZs not appearing to work on Debian, but if you said exactly the above, I missed it. Sorry. I'm glad to have the information now!
Cheers,
David
