Subject: [PATCH] Bug-fix: xpTimeZone_local() returned the UTC-offset as they
daylight saving time was in effect, year-round, on Linux.
Use the localtime() tm_gmtoff method of detecting the local time zone offset
on Linux, don't rely on the global variables 'timezone' and 'daylight'
behaving as they did in Borland C/DOS. From the Linux man page:
Note that the variable daylight does not indicate that daylight saving
time applies right now.
