hi, ext/date still supports the TZ environment variable in 5.3+ despite the better alternative available via either php.ini (per directory too) or http://www.php.net/date_default_timezone_set.
The main problem is that putenv and getenv are not thread safe and many tests will fail either when using TS SAPIs or on Windows. This method is already deprecated and it is recommended to rely on the other methods.
