Subject: Re: Displaying USS timezone for 1.4

<snip>

And, of course, that doesn't help non-LE implementations.

The Systems/C runtime gets the default timezone from the offset
specified in the CVT.

Furthermore, the idea of a "default" timezone is flawed - who says
two users are in the same timezone?

What about the leap seconds? 

As of June 2006 there are 22 of those things.

I just thought you might want to know why you may be 22 seconds "off"
from everything else.

Later,
Steve Thompson
