Comment (by code@…):

 {{{
 Actually, why does this function even exist?  Why does mutt not simply
 call mktime() directly, and rely on the system library to implement it
 correctly, instead of trying to re-implement the function itself?  Are
 we to believe there exist POSIX-like platforms that still don't have
 mktime?  That seems extraordinarily unlikely....  The standard which
 contains it is very old.
