On my system (Linux, Fedora Core 3) RCS is working without trouble (and
without strange messages). I checked my environment for a variable named
TZ with a simple
> set | grep TZ
and there is _no such variable_. Strange, but your Windows XP port of
RCS is different from my Linux version (ci -V: Version 5.7).
Someone with Windows XP has to check it.

It is worth a try. But my explaination may be confusing or wrong, the
last version of Windows I've seen (approx. 6 years ago) was Windows NT
4.01 (in german language, so I have to guess the english names in your
GUI. And all my guesses may be wrong...)
In the "Start menu > System control > System" (or similar) dialog you
will find a tab "Environment", which will allow you to set the
environment variables for the system. The settings are persistent, and
if it works, you don't have to trouble about the issue in the future.
Have fun!
Michael
