The new time zone stuff and System V time zone stuff behave differently
if there's no TZ environment variable.  The good news is that this difference
is irrelevant, since there's "always" (supposed to be) a TZ environment
variable in System V systems.  This also means, of course, that other time zone
handling schemes are free to do whatever they want if TZ is absent.
(Now if I can just remember this until the next time it comes up. . .)

Missing person department:  mail can no longer be sent to greg at nosc.arpa,
who's been on the list until now.  If anyone has a fully-domainized address
for greg, let me know.
