The glibc man page for timelocal says, “The timelocal() function is equivalent to the POSIX standard function mktime(3). There is no reason to ever use it.” mktime is actualy a standard C function, which is probably even better than POSIX. So yes, timelocal is a GNU extension with an analogue in standard C. A global s/timelocal/mktime/ in the source code would probably have the desired effect. _______________________________________________ Ur mailing list [email protected] http://www.impredicative.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ur
