Thanks, but why is the -DHAVE_POSIX_DECLS=0 argument needed? I was 
hoping that HAVE_POSIX_DECLS could have the default value under MS-Windows.

Sorry, I forgot to avoid redefinition of tzname. Fixed in the attached 
patch, which I've installed on GitHub. This still assumes you're 
compiling without setting HAVE_POSIX_DECLS, though, so possibly we need 
further changes.
