Hi,

While not as precise as Dennis' answer a quick and dirty one:

    zdump -v $TZ | grep 2007

On my B56 system it shows:

alpha% zdump -v $TZ | grep 2007
US/Pacific Mon Mar 5 03:07:34 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 4 19:07:34 2007 PST isdst=0 US/Pacific Sun Mar 11 09:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 PST isdst=0 US/Pacific Sun Mar 11 10:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 PDT isdst=1 US/Pacific Sun Nov 4 08:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 PDT isdst=1 US/Pacific Sun Nov 4 09:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:00:00 2007 PST isdst=0

Note that there is also a patch for libc required to get the complete DST update, Since the timezone fix is there I am assuming that the libc fix is also included.


Great tip Lloyd!

By pulling the BugID's out of the SunSolve alert we find the original two bugs:

The libc changes: 6348147 (http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6348147)

The zoneinfo changes: 6226357 (http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6226357)

Both of these bug fixes were integrated into snv_31, so any one on a even remotely recent system should be good to go. I saw that in B57 there was an update to "2007n" which handled some cases for various parts of the world (namely Bermuda) but most everyone should be fine.
